and no pushing!

Hey Kenny he couldn't wait and your art is already hung on the walls of that room. Beautiful. We have tons yet to do, bamboo strips are going up right now.
Wendy

Sounds fun, maybe we can do a Sacto Crawl at Shady Lady and Ella

come on up, paul, and bring some bay tcers with you.

Got any pictures of what you're selling? Nobody wants to drive all the way over there just to see your selling some Party City crap.

no pics yet, grog. the stuff won't be set up til fri afternoon. check back here for photos on fri. i have lots of vintage, tiki farm, munktiki, geckos and other goodies. no party city crap. i thought after your grog/party city tiki mag cover, you had that market covered! and as if you were gonna drive up here to buy my stuff! you better just worry about fires and mudslides, not what i'm selling!

WORD....

will you have an extra big lots tiki?

I'm up for a tour of the jungle room and a Shady Lady/Ella/whatever crawl...

What is this Shady Lady/Ella crawl...Sacramento?

Paul, I'm up for a Sacto crawl on Saturday.

Hey don't forget Brooks sale...what crawl?

relax girl! they're making up their own crawl for after they hit the sale. i think that's awesome! i have no idea what shady lady and ellas are, but they must have good drinks if rum runner is itching to go there.
perry, i am also clueless about big lots tikis!?! so, i guess i won't be selling any.

I've been to the Shady Lady Bar twice, very good
Have not been to Ella's or 10 on Twenty
What would be the best order to hit these 3 places ?
Locals chime in now

Lounge on 20. It's excellent.

Ella and Lounge on 20 are probably walkable. Shady Lady is a short drive. I'd say Shady Lady, then Lounge on 20, then Ella. Lounge has music so it may be loud. Ella will allow more conversation late into the evening.

On the other hand, Shady Lady can be loud but has lots of space...

B should chime in on this.

Wendy, relax. We are doing a few bars AFTER Bullet's sale. You all are welcome to join us. I'm looking forward to visiting with Bullet. Been too long.

Since Ella's is a restaurant first and foremost, the bar closes earlier than the other 2 we are stopping at. Hence, I'd recommend hitting that place first or second. If you are up for a moderate amount of walking. Ella's, then Lounge On20, then Shady Lady with a walk back to your vehicle would be a nice triangle. Also progressing from least to most boisterous. It's 8 blocks, or about 3/4 of a mile between Ella's and Lounge On20. It's 12 blocks, or a little less than 1 mile between Lounge On20 and Shady Lady. It's 10 blocks, or a little less than 1 mile between Shady Lady and Ella's. There's food at all 3 stops. Ella's is one of the best restaurants in town and has prices to match. Lounge On20 has fancy small plates. Shady Lady has some good food, but the food next door at Magpie Catering and Cafe is spectacular and not badly priced. Whatever you do, don't wander down the street from Shady Lady to R15 -- it's sports bar with bad liquor, though the attached restaurant is yummy.

Can't relax Brenda there's work to do. We have been hauling boxes of tikis from Bullet's to our home. Here's a load that we brought home yesterday.


Please bring your own bubble wrap and boxes. We are reclaiming what we loaned Bullet to get his treasures here. Wendy

Dan and Wendy, thank you so much for hosting this fun event. Don't consider myself a mug collector but did score a cute sea horse "Gecko" mug. Thank you Bullet for parting with some of your treasures!
