Had a nice visit from Duke Carter over the weekend. His impending arrival provided enough motivation for me to finally start unboxing the mugs I have been saying for years that I was "going to do tommorow"
Anyway, still not done, and probably going to run out of space- as all items tiki are being confined to one room in the new house.. but in any case, here's a shot of the under construction Wall of Tiki:
Here's another shelf into which I have started unpacking
S&P's. I think I'm going to build some kind of bleacher system for the shelf to display them:
And here is some of the waiting list for shelf space. These mugs are behind the red rope until all boxes are unpacked and the VIP's have found their homes. Many of these mugs may end up in limbo, since I have just about maxed the space at this point.

Holy $#@^@&.
I need to come over and see your collection some day, it's amazing. I'm embarrassed to call mine a collection now.

It makes my heart yearn! I LOVE the Moai that's black with the blue top rim. Incredible. Yes, now you are going to have more visitors as they pass through to the Mai Kai. That's just stunning.
