That is the backyard that I dream of having. Great selection of goodies that really give off the vibe of being in a remote jungle depot center. I hear glenn miller or benny goodman in the background. FANTASTIC!!!
I REALLY love those red louvered shutters. They add a nice color and, for some reason, make me think of the Monkey Bar in Tales of the Golden Monkey.

Pele Paul,
I love your jungle theme, but that mannequin is freaky, I'd hate to get drunk and find that in my Tiki Bar.
I'd be afraid to get in a fight with it and get my ass kicked.

lol funny thing about the standing mannequin, about 15 years ago I bought him from a friend and set him up in my then Vietnam war room, which didnt have a door on it at the time, his left arm was up like he was saluting, well, when i got home late that night from work at midnight, I totally forgotten about him, I was walking down the hall way when I look over and see a half naked man standing there with his hand up, need less to say i screamed like a little girl and then attempted to bitchslap him, sadly I put a hole in his chest and broke his arm off !!!
