T tiki_kiliki Member Birmingham, AL Joined: Apr 01, 2002 Posts: 1046	T tiki_kiliki Posted posted on Mon, Dec 13, 2004 4:46 PM Ok, the company I work for threw me this bone once and I didn't take it. I was just offered the entire Florida region on the 2nd try with an offer I couldn't refuse. I will be relocating to the Ft. Lauderdale area in mid-January. I am really excited about everything except the weather! I'll be based there and will travel to all of our locations in Florida. I will still carry on with Tiki Torch Nights in Atlanta and will be in attendance on those dates. I look forward to spending time with all of you in Florida and of course will find residence as close to the Mai Kai as possible. Not to mention this is going to make organizing Hukilau so much easier. Yee-Haw & Aloha, The World of Tiki Kiliki [ Edited by: tiki_kiliki on 2004-12-13 16:47 ]

Hopefully so, this move is going to happen pretty quickly. I'm already taking over some locations and it looks like I'll be down this week for 2 days and 3 next week. Thanks everyone - I'm excited!

Granted all four were in the same year.... And, it is December and I still have orchids blooming! Who else can say that? I guess we can't, I've never had a Hurricane while living in San Diego. Firestorms yes, Hurricanes no. But we have Orchids, too, and no Gators! tiki_kiliki, when are you taking over all North American Operations for your company? How about just all West Coast Operations? Maybe all Florida & the Tiki Ti? :D

(That's sort of like some of us getting a job offer in Modesto! Well, uh...not quite, uh...:wink:) Congratulations, Kiliki! Imagine, being a regular at the Mai Kai. I'm sure Florida will be extremely good to you. You realize, guys, this means Fort Lauderdale now has an even stronger "Anti-Hurricane Tiki Force Field"! xox tikivixen

I'm too excited to be a regular at the Mai Kai - I've got to be sure to watch my pennies though. Chip and Andy - we've got to make a regular night there and of course everyone should come along. Hopefully I can have a big pre-party at my place prior to Hukilau next year!

T tiki_kiliki Member Birmingham, AL Joined: Apr 01, 2002 Posts: 1046	T tiki_kiliki Posted posted on Mon, Dec 20, 2004 10:17 AM Thanks so much! I am in Miami today and visiting locations, meeting my staff. So exciting! I'll be looking at houses/apartments the rest of the day after lunch in the Lauderdale/Hollywood area. I am tentatively planning to go to the Mai Kai tonight for a brief visit. My boss is with me so maybe I can convert her! Let me know if you receive this and want to join. You can email Chip and Andy (see this thread) and they can give you my cell phone number. Those of you that know my cell just feel free to give me a call!

Be sure to look up crazy Erin when you're there (maybe you know her? She's been at the last two Hukilaus)-- she's a good friend of mine, she lives there in "Ft. Liquordale" and she is a lightning-rod for danger and excitement...
