QK Queen Kamehameha Member So Cal Joined: Oct 21, 2003 Posts: 1413	QK Queen Kamehameha Posted posted on Sat, Feb 6, 2010 10:25 PM Well Skip, you're right you guys get more snow, although to be fair is always a week to 10 days before I get up there after a big snow.... Last year they got 26 inches, then 23 within 2 weeks, I stayed away a month.....lol The Good news is that its only 40 minutes to warm weather. This week we closed the roof to the weather without hurting the trees..... it will stay dry for this winter. Ben, nice pictures, looks like a Christmas card photo Amy [ Edited by: Queen Kamehameha 2010-02-06 22:27 ]

T tikiskip Grand Member (8 years) Joined: Nov 26, 2005 Posts: 5993	T tikiskip Posted posted on Thu, Apr 1, 2010 1:01 PM Just got the ok to post the pic's of the lights I made for the Tree house. Made the first set some time ago. And just sent out five more of the barrels Most of the first batch went to the tea shop. That kinda freaked me out, Like now all granola tea types are gonna want tea lights. All of the barrels are linned with copper but still need kinda low watt bulbs. 25 watt. Amy thanks for making me think outside of the tiki bar box. Next?

They are named after Amy. 16 of them have been made to date. Amy has 15 of them. Thanks Amy !!! [ Edited by: tikiskip 2010-04-01 13:22 ]
