Avocado Memories

There is a website called Avocado Memories that is an incredible personal walk down memory lane that was put together by Wes Clark to document his life growing up in the '60. If you were a kid back then it will take you back in the deepest way possible - more than any site I've run across. Here a couple of links that I think are typical of many peoples experiences that set the seed of Tiki deep in their soul.

Ahhh, I was hoping for Goldenrod! :wink:

Sigh....

"I returned to the Royal Hawaiian for a barbeque rib meal in August 1998. (That's their electric eye tiki on the right.) I am happy to report the food was even better than I had remembered it, and the waitress told me that Francis, now in his 80's, recently sold the joint to his son, Francis, Jr. The interior - lush ferns, mysteriously-lit aquariums, bamboo matting, old photos of the islands and, inevitably, tikis - has not changed at all. Ah."
