Will, it was great speaking with you on the phone that night. Your a very cool dude, and look forward to getting out your way one day and catching a few waves with ya. I'm stoked you are stoked with your tiki. It looks awesome chillin' in your backyard with your others. It was a pleasure to carve this for you. Thank you for allowing me to create something you felt I was worthy of doing. You see something in my carvings that many others do not. Others may not appreciate this type of tiki/carving, but thank you for letting me know that you did.
Peace bro' Will, and thanks again.
Lake, thanks man. I had fun with this one for Will. You know the vibe. Surfer to Surfer. Will understands it, that's for sure, and I'm sure you do too. Not really certain about Hukilau at this point. Kind of unsure about it to tell you the truth. I'll PM ya about it later. A trip down to Costa Rica in early November is actually another option for us. Think we might opt for that instead. Our doors are always open for you guys. It would be great if you could cruise by here on your way back from Satellite Beach for a stay. Thanks for the post bro'. Your new biggie looks rad!
Thanatos thanks alot. Your new bar is looking great. Keep up the good work. It's going to rock I'm sure!
Mctiki, yep mystery solved. Couldn't have gone to a cooler person. We're still planning on coming down. Waiting on a swell. Ya'll be good now ya here;)
Ben, thanks again. There is not much anyone can do to compare to what you do. I appreciate your confidence building post. Please tell Mrs. Sherry we said hello. Miss ya.
G. & T.

Tiki Duddy, thanks alot for the compliment. I appreciate that. It is Ponderosa Pine. Easy to carve and holds a nice finish. We prefer it over palm these day's.

Ben these were actually taken down in Merrit Island at the "McTikis" last weekend. Trish and I did a little road trip down for the weekend for a little R&R. Did a little carving, a little drinking and a lot of chillin'.
Thanks to the McTikis for having us there. We had an awesome time. The place is very cool and relaxing. Thank god for the pool. We were sweating like dogs. I'd carve a little, rinse off, hop in da pool, get out, and carve some more.
Have some more pics to post, just can't get to them right now. You beat me to the punch before I could finish my post. How did you know I posted them?

Yep Rodeo, Gary and Trish make some killer stuff. I always swing through here to look at his pics. I'm a huge fan of his style and use of stain. Additionally, he has a killer sense of business! Go Gary go!!!

Thanks Rodeo and Gman for the props. Hope things are well with you guys. It's always to nice to receive a little attention every now and then. We've been busy working on this and that. Nothing too special, just keeping the chips flying. Been way too hot for much of anything. Be cool (in both ways) and thanks again.
