so here is a teaser picture for now, more to follow.

Great lighting !!
I like the name, it reminded me of this old place.
ATP, surely an old-school guy like you used to hang at the Atomic Cafe.

OH YEA!, Cheap Noodles after a night at Al's Bar! Downtown L.A., almost as infamous as Okie Dog! one of the old school punk dinners.
Thanks John-O, sometimes forget about these places.

Cleaned up the patio lounge fountain today, got the pump running, changed out the ceramic disk in the Mist Maker.
This is super cool mode...
This is sacrificial LAVA! mode, great for roasting marshmallows! but a real pain to clean when the lava cools.
Used a flash here so you can see the details...
Last but not least, Does anyone want my poltergeist,at first it's neat having things flying around, but when it starts breaking my mugs!
its gotta go!

ATP, I missed this thread! Sweet looking back yard, great place to chill on those beautiful SoCal summer nights. Now let's see a collection of the inside pics too.

Hey Mike, I have been so busy working as of late, I have not had much time to post more pictures.
I still have more of the outdoor lounge to post, while trying to get everything cleaned up after the winter we had,
then I will get to the indoor lounge/theater/living area.
This is not a high dollar home tikibar like some others have,but a do it yourself mid century mixed with Tiki decor
done bit by bit & many trips to HomeDepot & House of Tiki, done with as little money as possible & my two hands.
So I hope some of you Guys & Girls can Dig it!

I like the whole outdoorsy feel you've got going there. It looks very comfortable and relaxing.

Very cool. I really like that sitting area against the fence and hanging surfboard. What a neat little bench!
