The Lava Flow Inn is now here in the Home Tiki Bar forum. Thanks for the nudge Matt. The Lava Flow Inn is another stellar example of how to do it right.

Beautiful yard Matt, I took the liberty of posting your Shipwreck Falls in the Ponds thread.
1. I thought Angel's Flight was a tight pair of slacks I wore in the 70s, not a funicular.
2. How is that 12 step program for the BBQ addiction working out?
3. Did you ever build the Cannibal Corner?

I'm afraid that the Barbecue addiction is stronger than ever. Anyone tries an intervention and I'll go postal! (Cooked 4 Boston Butts last weekend)
The Cannibal Corner is done. It has a space next to it we call "Meat Storage" or "The Monkey Pit". I've been meaning to get some new pictures up. I also added an area called "Makoako Outpost # 14". The summer has got me all geared up to do some serious add-ons and upgrades to the place.
Thanks for the pond thread link. Very nice of you.
Pictures soon... I swear.
Peace with every step.

Great Tiki village!
It's too vast to be just a bar, man I envy the amount of space you have! love the use of the skeletons and the Pirate theme!

Sweet setup Matt. Can you elaborate on your skeletons? Medical surplus? Halloween store scores?

Check out Bucky's Boneyard. They sell what are considered "4th class" skeletons. They aren't super cheap but sometimes you just gotta have 'em. Add a little brown shoe polish and paint and they get a good aged look.
Thanks.

Vestige photography came out and did some shots at the Lava Flow Inn.
Susan who "is" Vestige photography was here for a weekend. Super nice and easy to deal with.
Here are a couple shots.
These are of the amazing and oh so cool Micheline Pitt.
Had a great time being around such fun people. I have other shots I'll post later.
Cheers.
