Or, alternately - have tikifarm produce a new volcano bowl in honor of Oasis 4 that seats 30 people, and skip 135 altogether!

SKIP 135?? GASP. Perhaps we could put that volcano bowl in there, though.

Just got home from my road trip... what a blast! It'll take me some time to get all the pics off my camera, but I'll try to get the Oasis ones posted this weekend. I'm impressed with the restraint being shown by some of you who I know have some rather... interesting pictures of me making new, uh, friends in room 211. I would, however, love to have copies for my personal archive of my road trip, if you wouldn't mind emailing them to me.
It was great meeting so many new people, and it's neat to see some new folks coming out of the woodwork (Nolahini, where are you?). Those pics of the beachball fight are really funny, and who'da thunk there would be a goofier picture of hulahula than the one on the TC stickers? I think I saw a picture of the Simian Smackdown in one of the posted sets, which I was bummed to miss, but it kinda just looked like a giant hairball. Tikibob, I've got more lobster pics on my camera for you, not sure yet how they turned out.
Very cool of Casey from Caliente to pop in here to talk about their bartending situation. What a stressful thing it must have been for them! Perhaps next year there could be an official kick-off event on Friday afternoon where some of our resident mixmasters show all of us some of the tricks of the trade and walk us through some of the basic drinks. That way, we can all learn something along with the bartending crew. (I volunteer to drink the mistakes!)

The weekend was too short. It is really a day and a half long since people start arriving on Friday afternoon and it basically ends on Saturday night. Sunday doesn't really count because the place is mostly cleared out by noon.
I propose that next year we could start on Thursday. That would be the settling-in day. Then we would wake up on Friday at our beloved Caliente and the official entertainment and planned festivities would commence as they did this year. We'd get 2 1/2 days out of it.

I heard through the grapevine.......that there might be an "un-organized gathering" at CT mid summer in the "off season" for those of you that can stand the heat! But, I heard, it would be cheap! (rates that is!)Un-Organization seems to produce many fun times! (if you's get what I's mean's!)See you's there!

We got one too! Yes, it is September 18th for the expiration, advance reservations required, and 1 night free when paying the first night at the seasonal rate! I wonder if Casey can arrange something a little better than the seasonal rate if we get a nice little group together?
Um, ok, personal plug here....
My birthday, Al (Alnshely), Tiki-bot, and PolynesianPop's birthday is in September. Anyone else a September baby?
Hmmm...September Combo-Birthday Bash?

I'm September! January is a cold, cold month.
I'm on picture 4 out of 488 from my trip. It may be awhile before my Oasis pics get put up, after all.
