Hey Zulu -
Awesome, awesome job! Your bar looks delicious. Hopefully you've had time to relax with a Mai Tai and take it all in.

Great work Zulu!!!!! Very nice...Yer gonna need an ejection seat from a f-15 to get me outta there after a night of drinking! Didn't see one in the pictures...must have missed it.
Yeah Fink....we went to the show early, took my Galaxie and parked out front....left early.....have to with the babies. But it was really nice.
Talked to a guy Scott Burgess. He made the Tikis and the bar cases that he pinstriped. He also did the paintings on the sheetmetal. Only person I've ever met besides myself that paints on metal. So it was cool to talk to him.
Good show......tiki is everywhere.
Sorry we couldn't stay and meet ya finally.
Have a great day.....Mr. Dale

Dale - Take a closer look at the pics for the Kona Luanii and you will notice that your tiki #4 has found a new home. He has been transplanted from Bill's apartment and now resides with me. He has also been renamed 'Big D' in recognition of the carver.

Oh thats great news Zulu.....My tikis seems to grow feet and move all over. That one always reminded me of my grandpa Guy in South Dakota....he was a gold miner in the Black Hills.
Had a stubborn sorta look even when smiling.
I'm glad ya have him.
How is Tiki Bill....still around? Is he o.k.? He was always a nice guy.

Matterhorn, I think that's a great idea. How about meeting up Sunday either July 8th or 15th at Casa Bonita (say 6:00). That will be fun. Afterwards, we could head over to Lakeside for a few rides on their classic attractions. Summer evenings at Lakeside can't be beat if you are a fan of classic amusement parks, the neon, the sounds, the popcorn the history and the rides! Lakeside has a few real classics left. I also love that you only pay $2.50 to get in and then pay as you go. The Cyclone ($2), the Wild Chipmunk ($1.50) and The Whip ($1.50). Which Sunday works best for everyone?
Also, anyone interested in a sneak peek over at the Kona Luanii?  I could use some help with coming up with some house drinks.

All- July 8th works best for me. I will be in Anaheim on July 15th so I cannot make it. See you all on the 8th and I will bring your jacket Helz.

We are talking about Casa Bonita on the 8th? Very good date for us. Details? Would anyone want to do Lakeside and Casa Bonita on the same day?

OK - Meet at Casa Bonita at 6:00 on Sunday July 8th. Open invitation to anyone who would like to attend. Afterwards, we will head over to Lakeside just as all of the the lights start to come on (that place has TONS more character at night).

Aw, man - this sounds fun! Would've been the perfect scenario to finally meet members of the Denver tiki tribe. My birthday dinner is planned for that same night, so I can't make it. Really sucks too because we live right across I-70 from Lakeside! Anyway, have fun everyone and hopefully I'll hook up with you guys on another outing. Don't fall off the Wild Chipmunk!
