Another day closer to our wonderful event. It's about time to start the cold paint on the decanters. Cheers, Wendy

Wendy,
I think it is safe to say your invitees are welcome. I don't think we are going to open up the registration again at this point, but once you confirm they are coming I will add them to the list. Sorry to have been so evasive as to not been able to wish you the happiest of birthday wishes...so much going on right now.
So Wendy, although I missed your day, I wish you nothing less than the best for your day. I am so impressed by your talents, I often peek back at all of your progress and simply smile! You are the best! Dan too!
And Marlene, sorry to hear of your recent injury. Speedy recovery and best wishes to you as well. Both you and Wendy hold a special place in my heart!
Psycho Tiki D...Smarter because of tiki!

Thank you Tiki Mookie, Duane has now ok'd my dear friends Joanne and Jama. They will be staying in the Buzzy Bedroom. Dan's been hanging more tikis in there so it will be more fun to see this year.
Thank you Duane, I had a wonderful birthday with Dan and being at Oasis.
I've started cold painting the decanters and remaking three that had glaze skips.
So here's the scoop. I'll have a run of 50 for $80 each no cap or lid because of the shape of the volcano. Because of that I kept the cost for buyers much lower.
I'll have 6 "seconds" that I did a lot of extra hand painting on so that the 1/2 inch glaze skip on the back edge is covered and looks fine. These are $50 each.
I'll have some glaze tests that are the same on the front but have different glaze colors on the other sides and top. There are $100 each and are 1/1's.
I'll have every one in my car starting with the first crawl location and from then on. Now I've got to get back to work. I fell badly on our way to Oasis and fractured a piece of bone off my right ankle and possible the same thing to my left knee. I didn't know until I had x-rays this week. I have to see an orthopedic surgeon next Tuesday morning. After walking on that foot for three weeks he said based on my x-rays I need to use crutches. We'll be there on Tiki Tuesday even if I have to crawl. Sorry Marlene that you will not be there. I have to go so I can get all the healing hugs. I send you one digitally. Love you all, Wendy

Adding Joanne and Jama to the list of guests. Just shy of one month away.
Alan will be making the badges and the question has been asked about names?
Do the registered guests want to use their TC names or the their registered names?
Please let us know by the end of the week.
Thanks,
PTD

Thanks so much Matt, see you Tuesday?
Duane, I like Wendy - danlovestikis
and for Dan Dan - wendylovestikis
It's getting so close now that I've been working 12 hour days to get these done. I've now identified 6 "seconds" so I'm making from scratch 8 replacements just in case any of those fail inspection. By no means are any of them perfect like Tiki Farm productions. I just do my best and hope you are all happy with them.
This weekend I painted white flowers, art shapes, and 50 of the words Tiki Bob's. We hosed off the 8 newly bisqued decanters and I painted all six sides and the volcanoes. Today it is time to paint Bob's face.
If anyone wants one and is not on the list send me a PM. I will ship to those on the list who do not make it to the crawl or are out of town - if I have any left.
I can only fit three decanters into the home oven at a time to set the cold paint. Poor Dan I'll be baking for 38 hours and he likes a cool home!
The photo also shows two wall plaques I made out of ruined decanters. Dan's grabbed those as one of his rewards for helping me every step of the way.
Cheers, Wendy

Hello everyone,
If one more cancels Tonja and I would like to go. We went last year and enjoyed ourselves with the Sacramento Ohana. I have a decanter reserved under "The Quin" from Wendy and Dan as well.
