well, I was able to get a little more eye detail done and then it started pouring.
Didn't sell any tikis....
But, I met a nice Oil Tanker captain who lives in Rincon Puerto Rico who wants some of my tikis and offered me a place to stay near the good surf spots & a place to work. So I may be going to stay in Puerto Rico for a spell...

ok, so I need to glue a tooth back in on the kanaloa, and also glue one of his "spikes" back together, and then I'm gonna let him sit for a few days.
I handed over a bunch of tikis to a local restaurant owned by a girl that I went to high school with and her husband. They're way cool and like to display local art, so basically I have some stuff displayed stuff there. Anyway, I need to get some new projects started because I've been focusing too much one one piece. It's making me feel weird. So I'm starting a new big one tomorrow. Maybe a Marq....
And I did like 12 or 13 miles on my new (old) roadbike today. Felt good!

ok, the big kanaloa's nose is healing, so I'm gonna leave him alone for a week or so. At this point the Big Tahitian and the big Kanaloa are my two favorite pieces, but I'm a little burned out on it, so I needed to start another big, serious tiki.
So after kicking it around this morning I decided that it's time for me to do another Ku...but not like all the one's I've done before....this one has to be better. Much better.
It's time to step it up!
