Thanks Chris.

If you're going to list vendors, you should put Jungle Ginger's name before ATP because she 's sweet and he's a crotchety old bastard and you don't want to scare people away.

I am going to make you wear the "Gimp Mask" all day Ernie, the one with the zipper for a mouth
all day........ :D

Is "Magic Tiki" going to be there?

Be sure and wash it after you take it off BigTikiDude. Will GROG have to wear the assless chaps also? Because GROG definitely won't be able to fit into the ones you have on BTD.

We do Rock, Paper, Scissors to see who gets to be the dom. BigTikiDude is easy to beat, because he ALWAYS throws rock, the first time. It's a bit trickier with ATP and GROG.

You guys make me laugh! Grog you feel up to visit to Don's tomorrow?

I will have some rare Tiki Farm Mugs for sale tomorrow
and a few vintage, under Ooga-Mooga & eBay prices.

Jungle Ginger has tons of new hair flowers for the ladies
with lots of new styles.

See ya all tomorrow!!!

Big thanks to all the folks who stopped in to see us (Forgotten Tikiman I looking at you!)

Awesome Signing with Bens Mom, I forgot my BOT and my Van's to give to Tiki tOny next to the front door so I wouldn't forget to bring them along :/ Ben it was wonderful to chat with your Mom again. I hope there will be more opportunities for that book signing. Such a fun spent with friends & picking up some tiki goodies too!

Yes, BEN'S MOM!

It was our first time, it won't be our last! It surpassed every expectation! Everyone, the vendors, staff and attendees alike made us feel right at home. Definitely worth the drive from Nor Cal! See you all next time!

It was my first time attending as a vendor, and I loved it! Thanks to all that stopped by and checked my stuff out! I'll be back for the next ITM!

All of you have no idea how much it stinks to see all these wonderful tiki events happening in CA....but live in Ohio. sigh
As you make your treks to tiki bars, have a cocktail for your tiki-establishment-less friends! :wink:
Good thing my husband and I have a tiki lounge our house- otherwise depression would be overwhelming! :wink:
Mahalo!

SEPTEMBER 7th?!! You expect anybody to have any money after Tiki Oasis or any vendors to have any inventory left? Well, maybe Bamboo Ben because he's so fast he could fill a warehouse in a week. And, maybe Ruzic because his sheer volume of artwork, he could never sell enough to not have any inventory. But, maybe that would be better for what vendors do have inventory. Fewer vendors to compete against, more money for the few that do have stuff! :D

I hear your pain! I moved from California to Idaho. We have the Reef. The drinks are fine but no Tiki -files to chat with. No funny creative types that make me smile. I have to go get my fix once a year at Tiki Oasis. I highly recommend you two come out for that one.
