Unfortunately I haven't had time to do any original art so I will just have prints available. I will also bring some postcards.
Can't wait to get to Cali. I'm excited for my first Tiki Oasis!!
Thanks for the hospitality Mr. and Mrs. Boo. You guys rock.

I can't wait! Only 2-ish hours to go! All the cool art 'n stuff and the world renowned Hula Girls performing!
I've had this dollar bill burning a hole in my pocket and what better place to spend it than Bamboo Ben's? At least I think the burning is a dollar bill. Maybe it is some embers from the Beach Burn!

You know, I had recieved some bad news that week, but I had such a good time that I almost forgot my troubles!
Thank you Bamboo Ben for allowing us to have our first gig in your shop. The whole evening was a nice, relaxing time. The Hefe was flowing! The food was very Ono, and the crowd was fun to hang with. Kind of felt like a tailgate party. The artwork was awesome. Your shop is awesome!
I did not get to go to Oasis, but your pre-party was an event I will remember for a long time...oh, and hanging with LLT and the crew....!!! I love that we secretly have a lot of hobbies in common!!

Art, music, food, beer and good people what more could you ask for. It was a pleasure meeting the Pleasants and Flounder. Of course stalking LLT was an added bonus. Thanks to the Boo's for hosting a great party.
Jeff and Megan

You can send Flounder back to his home now.
I've pm'ed you my Fedex Number.
Punch a few holes in the box and pack a toy truck and a bottle of Lemon Hart in there with him and he'll be fine.
Sorry, but you were all warned that he's difficult to get to leave.
Send to:
maikainagirl
Orlando, FL
mahalo.
