Thanks everyone, You are so nice to comment, I can't tell you how much it means to me. The yard has been a labor of love for 5 years now,and a dream forever. With Ben and Benny doing something new every year as budget permits. I really love that it has design, art,masks, lamps, statues, etc from artists right here on Tiki Central.
I have loved Tiki and Hawaiian my whole life, when I was a kid I My folks would take me every year to Hawaii Kai and Luau 400 for my birthdays, when I moved to Florida, I spent many occasion at the Trader Franks and Mai Kai.
So for me, This yard reminds me of all the great times loving something most thought was corny. My friends who thought I was weird to have it built, now want to come over all the time, my son who laughed at me, now has his own slice of bamboo ben heaven, lol The one thing about Tiki, it's infectious!
Thanks again all for the nice comments!
Amy

I did drool all over my keyboard when I first saw your pictures! Thank you for sharing and for the invite. We absolutely can't wait to see it in person and meet you both. What an amazing, amazing accomplishment and what a beautiful paradise you have created. I hope you have many happy years enjoying your Tiki (and pirate) haven.
Ben you are a master craftsman! Mind blowing work!

Do you use a router on those 2 main support beams? I really like those! Are they 6x6 that were already in place, to support the terrace?

Hi Amy, when you have time could you post some current pictures of your amazing 'upgraded' backyard? Sure would love to see some comprehensive views of all the new and old stuff as they look completed.
Mahalo and Aloha!
