Hey everyone
I did some updates to the website dedicated to my backyard. New pictures of all the recent additions of tikis, plants, and other cool stuff.
http://www.geocities.com/erichtroudt/
yeah, its a crappy geocities site. If too many people look at it at once, it will shut down for an hour so pace yourself people.
Any comments, thought and suggestions can be emailed to me erichtroudt@yahoo.com
Have fun
Thanks,
Erich

Thanks for the kind words.
As far as seeing it in person, if anyone is going to be near the Rancho Cucamonga/ Fontana Calif area, let me know.
I'm sure we can work something out.

hey, I'll even open the doors and you can see my lawn mower inside! (people really get disappointed that it holds my garden supplies and that its not a bar)

I love your old tiki's. It's like you are running a tiki rescue shelter. I feel the same way about my poor old Witco tiki. I found her sitting in front of an antique store all beat up, cracked and weathered. I named her Hillary.

Erich:
Astounding. Beautiful work!
You must build a tiki bar inside, anything else is a waste of such a fine tiki hut, preferably in time for an end-of-summer initiation ritual.

Looks great Erich, definitely one of the finest backyards on TC! But I gotta question though... what's inside the tiki hut?

A fine HuT indeed, you do us proud, now can we put you down for a tour and bash somewhere in September? I'll bring drink umbrellas, others?

As a proud Pasadena resident and fellow tikiaficianado (who drives right by Rancho Cucamonga on his way to Empire Lakes G.C. more than once-a-month - are you pretty close to that, E.T.???) - I loudly cast an "AYE" vote for making this an official "CRAWL STOP"!! All in favor, signify by saying "AYE!" as well!!!
Do the "aye's" have it???

I saw your hut a whilst ago and loved it. I still love it, perhaps even more now.

Hi Erich
Your backyard looks great! I'm just starting on my yard with tropical plants and eventually want to have a heavily decorated tiki bar and cover out there. Your hut is too cool.
A question for you... I'm just down the hill from you... do you have to take all of your decorations down when the Santa Ana winds blow? Or do you leave em up and hope for the best? My yard gets thrashed pretty good every year and I'm pretty sure I'd loose stuff if it wasn't nailed down 4 times over!

Wow, that place looks great. Hope you don't mind if I steal a few ideas from you?
