Ben -

Would love to come out tonight but is just not possible - I have an early day tomorrow at the Long Beach Aquarium and then we're heading over to Ruzik's studio for afternoon and evening (I have to get up at 4:00am during the week - it sucks).

Have fun tonight at Frankie's - you guys are gonna enjoy it - last time me and Melany arrived at midnight and stayed until four in the morning sampling the different cocktails and bringing home several mug souvenirs...a kick butt evening!! G

Benzart said he should hit Frankies APPROXIMATELY 8 pm tonight!

we got home Saturday Night at 11:30 and we had a Blast in Vegas. We could not spend the time at Frankie's and Mr Smileys that we had hoped to but Still had a great time
Here are some of the photos I was given the opportunity to photograph while in Vegas. These are All old Tropicana tikis I carved back in 1989, 90, and 91
Can't believe they are in such great shape

...whoa!

Cool, that's good news and a nice reunion.

Wow!
you got to visit the children
while you were in Vegas!
They have stood up quite well!

Very cool Ben!

Great to see that these icons of your talent still live on!

Boy I love those big tikis! I bet they were very happy to be reunited
with The Master.

Sniffle, sob, cry, bawl, whine, whimper, choke!!! I missed you by like two days, Benz. I was only an hour away, too. Was my mess still on the floor at Frankies?

Oh, those are your babies? I discovered them in the guys yard and stopped by and asked if he would sell any of them. The guy in the yard said, "no." They are awesome and bigger than they look in the pic. btw in my search for tiki I met a woman last week who said her tikis were from the Tropicana. I offered to buy one, but she wasn't ready to part with them yet. They are in good shape and are beautiful tikis.

that desert air....

It was great driving out there with Mrs and Mr Benzart. He was told that person had one tiki, but as we drove up more and more tikis appeared as we got closer. Talk about Christmas in July! What a gift it was to see those. Now-if I can only get arctic AC for my tiki bar!

I call this one "The KU-boose" !

Here are some more pics I took;
