Fatuhiva maybe you need a carved bench to set underneath the masks, then you could charge people $ to dress up like Hefner and have their picture taken. Just a thought. Again your place is great. Thanks for posting pictures.

Oh yeah. I believe that is the one that Fatuhiva outbid me on. It at least went to a TC'ers home. It looks like it is very happy there.

I thought it was ironic that it got shipped back to Florida after all to re-reside here. Keigs sent me a picture of it from the Witco catalog- it was called the "God of Fortune" I think- It is still a bit weatherbeaten- a water sealing/wood rejuvenation is in its near future..

Is your pool area enclosed? Ya thinkin' of sneakin' over the fence, TB? jk - it looks like screen to me. You California folks wouldn't understand the Southern bugs that can suck your blood dry before you can squeak "Deep Woods Off with Deet" or carry away your young'uns in the night. And they're not "palmetto bugs" either, dammit. They're f**ing ROACHES, and don't try to tell me differently. Oh, uh, sorry. Nice pool Fatuhiva. And masks. And mounting job. Gd, I hate roaches...

F fatuhiva Member Melbourne Beach, FL Joined: Mar 25, 2002 Posts: 638	F fatuhiva Posted posted on Sat, Mar 27, 2004 11:04 PM Tiki Bree- you're welcome to stop by anytime. The tiki room is (STILL!) under construction, but i have been given a late-May deadline for general completion by my wife. However the collection is out and about so that is viewable. Shoot me a personal message and we can set something up. Yep, thats screen around the porch. We live near a large preserve which means we get a chunk of bugs in the warmer months. We do get some mosquitoes, but those arent so bad, especially with the mosquitio-magnets you can get now. The hell bug is the No-See-Um. Those things are these tiny black specks- like a pepper grain that pack such a wallop. It hurts to get bit, and then it ITCHES like crazy. Luckily i seem to be building up a tolerance for it- but guests can get hammered by them. They are usually out in the warmer months during the early evening- hell, theyre always out there. And whats worse is they fly right through that screen! It only cuts them down on a percentage basis. I do like the screen though, becuase it cuts the wind and sun exposure down a tad, making it easier to grow tropicals.. thats basically what can save a pool area- planting lots of plants and getting some rocks in there. We had openings cut in the deck for planters when the deck was laid, but im trying to convince my neighbor to retro-cut some in his..
