While balancing and not dropping the mug, very fun!

Kelly, Grog and all of the vendors, thanks for putting on the Tiki Wonderland. It made my first visit to the Tonga Hut a memorable one. Nice to meet and talk to all of the great Tiki Central folks from the area, wish I could have stayed longer.

Mr. October is in da Hut!

"Oh yes, it was worth the drive!"

I see GROG back there

"Nice hat Scott."

"You mean this one?"

"We three Bobs..."

"Watch me pull a mug out of your ear." This is where Kirby makes his mugs...no, really. "Hey, is that GROG back there?"

"Success!"

"Hey Scott, look at this!"

  1. Mrs. Bigbro (Naomi)
  2. Tikipug (from Las Vegas)
  3. Tangaroa-Ru
  4. Dustycajun !! (who it was great to finally meet)

And where was MrSmiley ?? He was in town.

Wow, everybody posed with everyone, are there any possible combinations left!? :) Great shooting job as always, Tom.
I regret having had to leave early, missing some folks. I had a full Tiki day: O.A., Bahooka, Tonga...

Glad my shirt fits, Jason! And WHO in this group is wearing the correct shirt!?:

Wow, great photos, Tom. You are getting better and better. Everyone looks like they had an excellent fun time. Lots of laughing. Wish I had been there.

Queen Kamehameha deserves the credit, as she gave me that shirt!

Hmm, true, correct for the event, yes. I was thinking more loud-not-muted colors, as John-O is displaying. Certainly NOT like Poly Pop! :roll: :lol:

I love Poly Pops STP shirt.

I like that one! How about "Sensationally Throbbing Penis" ...

Looks like once again I must explain -- for those that haven't noticed I almost never wear a Hawaiian shirt. I find it humorous that those who subscribe to the Tiki genre because of it's non-mainstream, unconformist nature always feel the need to tell me that I'm not conforming because I don't wear aloha shirts! :wink:

I hear it all the time...

Your being a party pooper.

Not me -- I'm not the one pointing out who's wearing the "wrong" shirt! :)

Thanks everybody for coming to the Tonga Hut Tiki Wonderland party. And thanks everybody who purchased Tonga Hut mugs from Kirby and GROG. Sorry to those who were not able to get one, but we do plan on doing another, bigger run in a different color, so you'll still have a chance to get a Tonga Hut mug in the future. We also have some Artist Proofs we'll probably put on ebay.

Thank you to Jeremy and the Tonga Hut for hosting the event, and thanks Kelly and Sarah for serving up the delicious drinks.

GROG' computer in shop right now. (GROG on Kirby's computer)
