Now that I'm getting a newer truck I'll be doing lots of road-tripping and I'm just wondering where some of you guys are located so if I find myself in the neighborhood maybe we can meet up for a cold one and talk tiki.
This can be the official "Florida Tiki Directory"....
I'll go first.
My name is Jeff and I live in lovely Tampa....

Don't know if I'm much of a carver, but, I'd go for the cold one!

If you are in the Brevard area, I would suggest you post something on the "Brevard Tiki" group on Facebook. The Storm Shelter will be open for business in another week or two and is always open for a fellow traveler!

NIxxon: I think you are thinking of Island Mike's in Rockledge. I am about a mile north of there behind the hospital. The Storm Shelter is my home bar. You'll have to make it by sometime.

digging this one back up for the new guys....
and also to invite you guys to my little page on facebook....
basically I am trying to bring some local people together and get a little tiki bar scene going. I used to think I was one of the only people around here who was into tikis and stuff, and then I started meeting more people and realizing that I was not alone, but part of an extremely fractured scene. The bottom line is that there a lot of us, but unlike out west, there aren't tiki bars & tiki events popping up every 5 minutes/miles, so a lot of us just don't know each other.
I don't like to just include people in groups without asking them, but you're all welcome to join us.
