Yeah! And what's the story behind the non-move? Unless it's too personal...

No story behind the non-move. Just had a hard time selling our house in a slow market and finally gave up. People were offering low money for it. We wanted to move, we didn't Have to. It just didn't make sense financially. We are pretty happy here. Maybe we'll try again in a few years.
On 3 of the offers we got on the house, their realtor wrote it up wanting the hut. Some people were really into it, others were like, "you're taking that weird thing with you right?"
Pics of the new additions coming soon, I promise.......

Sweet! Your keepin it!
We thought about a newer and bigger home, (3 kids) but, with all that we have done to the yards and the slow market. We are stayin too. Just upgrade one room at a time. Keeps the hut and yard happier knowing it's maker is there too.

I promised new pics would be coming soon, and there finally here....In TIKI MAGAZINE!!!!
Man, it awesome...I feel like a little kid at x-mas. I walk around with the new issue in my hand just showing random people...."Hey look my backyard is in tiki magazine."
Jonpaul did an awesome job with the pics and the story. He spent 3 hours here just shooting, telling stories and hanging out. Really a cool dude.
Thanks to Nick and Jonpaul!!

Hey congratulations!
I just came back from checking your site devoted to your tiki hut--too cool!!! And the bananas on your banana trees! Wow. I think that's so weird--I've always seen bananan trees but never any bananas so they're kind of mythical--like fireflies (I have yet to see one in person).
(By the way, the link in your profile isn't leading to your site anymore.)
Thanks for sharing!
Take care,
I.
