If I may add my 2 cents, July looks like a good month.

This is our hut. The kitchen is on the other side. The great wall of masks still needs a few more masks.
This is just half of the entertainment center I started building last July and finished in February. It is made from teak. Over $1500 on wood alone!!!
This is a 24"x36" tikiroom print that we had custom framed by link at frame fetish. The mantle below is solid teak and the custom tile job below incorporates a simple palm tree mosaic. The palm tree is made from green marble and travertine and is surrounded with silver slate.
This is one of the several valances we have that accent the dark bamboo blinds. The bamboo rods pass through custom made brackets cut from solid teak and are made to look like a tiki hut roofline.
We purchased one of those 4 seater home theater sofas this year and made 8 of these pillows to tie in with our valances
I am simultaneously working on drapery made from barkcloth and the hand carved tiki ottoman that you may have seen on another post. Gary (from Badass tikis) is shipping me my bamboo barstools from an ebay auctiion. I hope to have a little more decorative clutter by July 12. I also have a bunch of decor that I use to trick out my garage. Unfortunately I do not have the luxurious back yards that many other TC members do.

You're quite the carpenter! Can't wait to see everything in person.

Very nice! I can't wait to see it in person...
Hmmm.... I'll have a month between your unveiling and mine, so I'll have a chance to pull some Hoiti Toiti moves to keep up with you!

Hey MonkeyMan, would you mind if Poly Pop and I visit your place tomorrow afternoon? We'll be at smogbreather's hut. But you might want to wait for the official unveiling. JT

Please stop by. I work until 5 and will be in my garage carving Friday night. It would be fun to have you over and give me some feedback/ tips on additional decor.
Please email me and I will give you the specifics.
I am probably 30 minutes from San Clemente
