If we ever make it back to Las Vegas I know the #1 attraction to visit will be your new tiki room. Thank you for the photo with my temporary shelf. Your three Bob's will come out of the kiln tomorrow. Your room is beautiful, Wendy
PS I didn't know there were 2 Bali Hai Goofs

Well it worked...
I wanted to use my huge Crystal Head Skull Vodka bottle but is still almost full. So I picked up a lil one instead.
Water and fluorescein dye. Looks great under the black light.

Hi Wendy,
We must have been posting at the same time. Your up late, hands deep in clay I bet. That second Goof is the new one at the Bali-Hai. Got it the last time we went. You know your always welcome to our Tiki Bar. I better get busy on your new shelf. Looking forward to your post tomorrow.
Jon

Jon,
You've really got a fine Tiki mug collection there! I see you've been stocking those shelves with Wendy stuff, too, kicking it up a notch.
That black light is taking me back on a memory trip to my surfin' 60s days, when life was quite a bit more carefree than it is now. If you only had an Endless Summer poster in Day-Glo colors under that black light...
Here's wishin' you and yours a fun weekend,
-Tom

Cool skull Jon, did you use the leakfinder dye from the automotive store? Comes in water soluble and oil soluble

Now that your wife is making tiki pillows she needs to have her own tiki name. Dan said that since you like numbers "hang10tiki" that your wife should claim the name
Janelle-no.-5. How about that! Wendy

MDM- my dye (fluorescein dye strips) might have come from work but I'm not sure
It's used to stain an eye to look for corneal abrasions.
Wendy and Dan- my lil bride loves the nickname.
U witty little clay masters you.
VampRN- Thanx, glad u like.
It's funny how many people around here wear scrubs ...

That framed Bosko carving is mighty fine, and I'm also partial to those Cook Islands Fisherman's God (Tangoroa) cabinet pulls by Crazy Al. Great additions, hang10tiki!
