I know Holden has posted this but I just want to give the Keiki's "Art Room" a little bump. Paula has several different coloring pages from some of our favorite tiki artists, puzzles, and some books for the little ones to read. She will be playing music to help set the mood and even has a tiki prize for the kids that stop in for a while. This will be a FREE, fun, supervised activity to give the BIG kids a chance to do a little shopping and catch a little of the live music. WE want to thank Squid, Ken Ruzic and Von Franko for coloring pages, Kirby for the pendents and Holden and the good people at the Farm for the space. Be sure to stop in and see what the Keikis and Paula are up too. |

What a great event! Grabbed a bunch of stuff dirt cheap. The one downside was the terrible traffic heading from San Diego. There was an auto wreck at the exit from I-5 north to Ave Pico. Must have been somebody in a hurry to get a deal. |

She abslolutly freaked when she was introduced to Holdens Bar . She is still talking about it . |

WooHoo and Soccer had more choice stuff by just cleaning out the top half of their hall closet than most two vendors put together! (See what I mean about Soccer generating an invisible forcefield of PARTY wherever he goes???) Gotta hand it to Kate, too, she was the first one on the ground and running. I think she was there at 5:45 am. |

Thanks for the great event Holden!!! It was the first time for WooHoo and I to ply our wares on the general public! We brought about 80 mugs (all dups and trips) and packed up a dozen when it was over! Also sold about 15 Aloha shirts (out of 25!) And thank Bamboo Ben for the great advice and extra products to sell!!! We had soo much fun just talkin' with everyone that came to our booth! I was so busy all day that I barely got around to chat and buy stuff from all the great vendors! After about 10 Mai-Tai's (before noon) it was just a big party!!! There were a lot of great artists and vendors and the music was rockin'! It was good to see sooo many TC'ers as well. I think I even saw Dr Z's short-haired twin brother!!! |

You know what they say, Cammo. The early bird catches the worm. Then she spends twice as much money as she should have, gets incredibly drunk and insanely sunburned. This was one of the best Tiki Farm parking lot sales I've ever attended. (And I'm pretty sure I've been to all of them.) Here's a sampling of the items that were for sale that I ended up taking home with me. I finally own a piece of Clysdalle's art. Mieko's pendants and a Stacey Morris necklace The newest addition to my collection of Laura Harper originals The Doug Horne mask I got this amazing salad set from Buzzy. A few Ken Ruzik pieces Some of Monkeyman's fabulous framed albums Cammo's gorgeous mug shelf holding some of the mugs I bought A Buzzy original Pdrake's beautiful little moai I think the best part was being able to acquire so much art from people I know personally and with whom I have the pleasure of carving every month. Cammo wins the prize for the single vendor who got the largest amount of money from me. (He beat Derek by $1.) |

Check out that haul! Is the Clysdalle piece painted on stone? The funny thing is, I swear I didn't see Kate *carrying a single thing the entire time. *She just seems to acquire the item, it vanishes, then reappears neatly packed in the back of her car miliseconds later, so fast it doesn't trip the car alarm! What did everybody else get??? |

WOOOOHOOOOO! What a Tiki-rrific Day!! Mahalo to Holden, All the Vendors, the Entertainers and "EVERYONE" who made the Tiki Trek to Tiki Farm Yesterday. We arrived at 6:30am and didn't head home until 9:00pm. What a day it was. For all of you who couldn't make, next year this event needs to be a MUST on your 2008 Calendars. We were so busy at our booth that I didn't have time to take alot of pics. But here are a few that I took: Here's our Booth: A Future TCer: |

Thanks Holden! The parking lot sale was a great time; I thought I took a lot of pictures but um.. It turns out I was making tiny 3 second B/W movies. :roll: (I had borrowed a friend’s camera that I wasn’t too familiar with.) Oops! So I’ve made some tiny screen shots. I managed to get a few real pictures too.

Holy crap am I beat! That was a killer fun sale! I got: Thanks to MakeDatMug for putting on an A+ event all the way around and for hiring the Tiki Shakers. Dibroc is Mr. Multi-task and kept all of us vendors iced down and wanting for naught. Thanks John! Paula was so great to keep the ankle biters busy. I'm pretty sure Grog, Boris and Kirby were in there coloring. I just kept hearing the whack of a ruler on Holden's desk and screams of, "No dammit! INSIDE the lines!!!" George and his brood were awesome in the Farm booth and Lupe even made a cameo appearance!! It was great to meet so many new faces and to have my feeble memory refreshed on the names I couldn't remember....hey! I thought whats-his-name was bringing name tags!! Most of all, thanks to those who left their money in my care. I will use it for my son's college education so that he may support me in my old age when I can't remember anyone's name. Enjoy your finds and see y'all at Tiki Treasures & Poynesian Pinups. skwid |

Well, another one under the belt. It turned out to be a really nice day which added to what will henceforth be "The Official Opening of Tiki Season" Tiki Farm Annual Parking Lot Sale. Everything went smooth and as best as I could tell, all were happy and digging the scene. I ended up heading back to my pad with a handful of TC'ers and Chongolio and I were up until 4am, revelling in the mesmerizing spell that Tiki has cast upon us all. Big Mahaloz to my man Jorge and my awesome new assistant Sharon as well as Jorge's cool daughter Michelle for helpin' out. Also to Sharon's husband Gary for dolling out the tunes & mc'ing the event, promoting the vendors while cranking out the tunes. This will continue to happen every April so rest assured, if you need to get your spring time Tiki fix and find a lot of great values and diversity, we'll be headin' your way again in 2008. Mahaloz! |

Thanks for the event Holden, it was a blast. Let's do it again next weekend!! It was great seeing so many people again GROG hadn't seen for awhile. Thanks everybody for stopping and visiting with GROG. GROG spend enough time talking with people that GROG not go broke buying everything. Thanks Bay Park for GROG's awesome Moai. GROG glad GROG just had to outbid Zaya to get it rather than fight her for it. She probably kick GROG's ass. Ruzic died his hair BRIGHT blonde and Dr. Z and Polynesiac cut theirs off. Now Squid and Bigtikidude have to die and cut their hair off. They are last of the LONG HAIR holdouts. |
