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,

I'm not sure if I'm making it to the Hawaiian Inn or not. 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!

Welcome to the Tropics!

There are hurricanes and it does get hot, but you can't beat the weather - middle of December and you can still go swimming.

She moved in. She had some fun. She moved on.

Last I heard she is in ALabama.

Kiliki,
Congratulations! I'm very relieved to see you'll still be carrying on the Tiki Torch Nights in Atlanta. I'm here to help if you need someone in Atlanta.

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

What a lovely turn of fortune!

(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"!

Thanks to Tikivixen and everyone else. 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!

I will actually visit Orlando quite often. We have a location there and I will travel there at least twice monthly.

I see many road trips in my future! Tiki Road Trips!

That is so great! Steve and I were at The Mai Kai (as usual! lol) for dinner and a show last night, and we ran into cybertiki and family! They told us the good news, and we are all so excited to have you here! :D

You are welcome with open arms. :)

Bestest Wishes on your move!

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!

Good luck with the new realm of Kiliki. Your staff is lucky to have a boss like you. So, your all-important residential shopping awaits? I hope that you will be guided to the perfect place to create your new hut.

That's pretty cool! 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...

Yes Mig - I called her almost instantly when I found out. I'm sure we'll share some scandalous times!
