I've been a long time lurker of TC and thought I'd post a pic of a bedroom of my house I converted over when I purchased my home in 2007. I've also included an outdoor shot of the house to explain why I call the place The Boomerang :) (plus a bonus pic from a time when we had a Rockabilly shoot at the house)...Thanks everyone, and keep the great stuff comin'!

B Boomerangthang Member Joined: Apr 28, 2012 Posts: 3	B Boomerangthang Posted posted on Mon, Apr 30, 2012 9:23 AM Thanks everyone for the kind comments. The house really has been a labor of love and it's a great retreat for me to come home to. Regarding the location, I was considering having a contest to see who could guess...Believe me, in the winter, I wish it was Melbourne... Would you believe Nebraska? It's smack dab in the heartland...I'll try to get some other pics up soon! Take care everyone.

So I nearly fell out of my recliner when only moments later I got an email from my Niece in Omaha sharing this exact picture of Boomer's place (whom she had previously told me about). My Niece even snagged a Bali Hai mug when she was in San Diego with me to give to Boomer. It's a small world people...keep it Tiki!!! Welcome to TC Boomer...and yes more more more pictures of your home.

I was impressed that he seemed to do it all on an extremely tight budget & it looks amazing. I'd LOVE to get my hands on that issue of Atomic Ranch and see the rest of the house. Especially since "Derek Mitchell" (what an original name heh) and I are moving into a townhouse soon and we're doing everything on a budget, also. However, this tiki bar room looks simply lavish and rich. I really love the MCM feel to it.
