Hello everyone,
My name is Tim Keenan and I am a photographer and film maker. I live in the Ojai Valley about 70 miles north of LA near lake Casitas. I have loved Tiki since I was a child when my mother was the designer for the Trade Wind's in Oxnard. I have a Tiki bar that I am building in the spirit of the Trade Wind's which was always my favorite place. Rain at the window's, boat floating in a lagoon lit by tiki torches with 30 foot carvings and trees. Beautiful place, so in the Trade Wind's spirit I am completing the Trade Wind's II and though it will be totally different( I think Tiki eclectic) I hope to bring some of that magic I used to feel going there as a kid, it was like Pirate's of the Caribbean at Disneyland. Are there any places like that anymore? I will post the progress of Trade Wind's II and look forward to getting to know you all.
