Lots of action at the Bora Bora Bamboo Barn! Interior walls are up with the wall coverings, built a staircase / ladder to the loft, Added bamboo shades to the windows, found a couple of cool things here and there....new pair of 3 ft tikis, an Orchids of Hawaii flaming volcano scorpion bowl, some awesome bamboo furniture, bar has begun and much more. The landscapers show up tomorrow with a bobcat and start transforming the area around the hut into a tropical paradise...Super stoked. Enjoy the pics - keep watching as I have only 26 days until the pig roast luau. check out my blog for more pics and updates www.tikirancher.blogspot.com
cheers

New Landscaping has begun! I had a bobcat show up two days ago and 3 large loads of dirt. Now the barn is almost complete...bar has been set and built. now its just trim out, running the electrical and decor. Home stretch - Big Tiki pig roast inaugural party is happening May 27th...contact me if your in the atlanta area if you want an invite. Should be a blast! Check out the current state of things in my backyard...flagstone patio and firepit coming up!

This is amazing - once you get the landscaping finished and lush vegetation growing it is going to look incredible.

NEW BAR with back bar and sink I built last night, I used base cabinets that are elevated 6" to give it a bar height and the back bar I cut the deepness to 10" off the base cabinets as well. The sink is just for ice and getting rid of left over drinks the morning after... shouldn't be too many of those.
I plan on staining the bar top and bar back tops with a nice mahogany stain and seal it with a high gloss poly. Belly up!
