Great photos GROG and hag10tiki. I can't believe my goal to hug GROG did not make it into a photo. At least I got the hugs and this photo. Wendy

Baby Doe and Otto, thank you and your entire crew for a unforgettable experience at Tiki Oasis 13. It was awesome! Here are a few highlights starting Sunday night and going backwards through Friday morning when I got there and more photos and video soon. Can't wait for 2014 Daddio!
Big Sandy and the Fly Boys at the Sunday main event with Excene Cervenka from the Punk rock group X who joined big Sandy in singing.
King Kukelele and his ukulele jam

This was one side of the Hanalei during the room parties.

Aloha and thank you to Otto, Baby Doe, and all the staff and volunteers that pull this thing off each year. Val and I once again had a great time. It may be the thing we look forward to most each year. Each one goes by quicker than the last, but only because we meet so many more fun and interesting people to spend time with each year. There's just too many highlights to itemize them all, but a few personal standouts were:
* Creepxotica at the Bali Hai and the Thursday welcome night in general
* Learning about Moonshine and white whiskey with Matthew Rowley
* Martin Cate's presentation on Steve Crane
* The Purple Orchid, Boozin on The Bayou, COTE, and Thee Swank Bastards room parties. Thank you to the hosts, bands, and bartenders that make these happen.
* The Hula Girls set on Saturday night - they killed it.
* Charles Phoenix for helping get everyone up and awake on Sunday morning after everything that happens on Saturday night.
* Fisherman smiling and playing vibes in the atrium every chance he could. That was great to have outside the front door.
* Big Sandy on Sunday was a revelation for me. I'd never seen him perform before and wow, what a showman.
And, as the cliche goes, So. Much. More. It's the year's best exhausting vacation.
As for photos, I have a few. They're wildly inconsistent in terms of documenting the entire event. Mostly they were just taken when I remembered to take the camera off my shoulder.
Starting with Thursday, and more to come later this week as I sort through them.
Higher resolution versions can be found on Flickr.
Mahalo!

Thanks to Otto , Baby Doe, Christy and all for putting on such a great show. The hotel staff were exceptional as was my vending location. Favorite memory was the guy dressed up like a hillbilly that fell into the hotel lobby display and had to be extricated amid the jumble of wood, tiki, straw, and copper tubing. Musical highlights include the Thursday Creepxotica show at the Bali Hai (along with action packed shuttle rides to and fro) Jason Lee and the R.I.P.tides, B Stars, Acapulco Radio, and Big Sandy and his Fly-Rite boys which features one of the best guitarists I have ever heard. Great pics from Ojaltimo and heylownine, how were you everywhere at once? Here are a few shots, many taken before the action started.
