Pablus,
Mahalo for being such a great host last Saturday when I was in town. Now I am back where the snow is gently falling......aaargh! Anyway here are some snaps of a great day out:
tailgating tiki style
The Gulf of Tiki Resolution
Sunset Pablus
beachside tiki bar at the famous Thunderbird motel
tiki bar roof sign
Gulf coast sunset
Florida's ultimate tiki-sports bar "The Hut" at John's Pass
Nice front door
and the boardwalk entrance
Cool water feature
Got enough TV's?

Yeah, one flat screen over every giant pole.
The poles are actually pretty nice - concretish plasticized sort of stuff.
It was a fun afternnon and evening, Mr. Matt.
Tiki Gardens Parking Lot is just sad.
Oh and for you Floridians - Norman's in St. Pete doesn't sell Trader Vics syrups anymore.

Loved the Thunderbird. Stayed there last year and spent way too much money at that little tiki bar! The beaches are beautiful, but you better be ready for a hike to get down to the water. While we were there it had to be a half mile. There were chairs halfway to take a breather/drink!! Would recommend that place to anyone looking for fun, sun and a mid-quality room.

Yeah, mom got around.
Or dad.
Somebody.
btw, Matt - thanks for the stogie, I smoked it Tuesday at a Jazz Club and the essence was so pervasive that a well-dressed gentleman (wearing a freaking ascot) came over and asked to see the cigar. Shook his head - said he liked those - and then we struck up a conversation. After about 30 minutes - it was determined that The Amber Love Goddess and I should stay at his villa in Tuscany. He presented me with an email address and that led to some web photos. The place is basically a castle. So now we've got a place to stay in Tuscany all because of your cigar.
Got any more?
I need a new car, a 3 month stay at a health spa and a ticket on the space plane.
So, you better send 4 or 5 of them.
