Mc Tiki, it is great! and the plantings make it very tropical. I wanted you to know that your pictures and the progress is what gave me the push to finish off our yard and build the new hut, thanks for the motivation...

Your most welcome Mc, your backyard is wonderful. sometimes we forget how nice something is that we see every day, until a pair of fresh eyes see it. Your yard was inspirational, and I thank you for that.

Water Hyacinth that only blooms for 1 day! Zoomed in on a couple with real steady hands.
Notice the 2 Cockatoos hangin out on the bar! Thay go to sleep there often.

Beautiful.
Everything is blooming down there... everything is dying up here in the frozen north.
It was really hard leaving Florida last week knowing what we were coming home to.
I've got three Florida banana trees kindly given to me by Tiki G though... they are adjusting to their new indoor home.
Compliments to your wahine for the green thumb!

Aloha, McT...
Great thread! It was fun to read through and watch the progress unfold. What a fab outcome! Here's wishing you many years of rum sipping pleasure surrounded by all your McTikiness! Beautiful landscaping as well...where in Fla are you located?
