You can leaf trough near 100 pages here http://www.taschen.com/lookinside/05721/index.htm So I thought of starting a thread devoted to the subject of Tiki roadside attractions.

Go BIG or Go Home” chronicles what happens when a small-town family visits the “world’s largest”…whatever! We haven't seen any big tikis yet, but we have seen a giant Buddha, garden gnome, globe, and bowling pin, among other things! I invite you to take a look and let me know what you think: http://GoBIGorGoHomeblog.com
