Get on the BUS! The Tiki Carving Harlem Globetrotters Tour Bus!

Thanks to 4WD for the logs, once again, and that big boy tiki is one slick piece of work. WOW!

I still say Buzzy's little guy is carved out of soap.

The food was ULTIMO.

My "Mr. Quick & Ugly" needs a few more hours work. It ain't so quick and I'll try not not make it too ugly, either.

Newbies were enthusiastic. That one guy next to Clysdalle was chopping like a pro! (Lets put a funny hat on him and call him 'Crazy Ken') That thin guy who was asking all the questions looks like a ringer!

And I sincerely promise to never again ask disturbingly obscure Tiki Questions.

Such as -

What giant bayside San Diego Tiki-style hotel is featured in the 1967 Jerry Lewis movie 'The Big Mouth'? It's in a huge amount of scenes, Jerry basically lives there and goes to Sea World for fun.

Here's the answers to the earlier questions -

1."Timeless Collectibles" on Adams Ave. The coffee bar is called "The Retro Bar". Inside the antique shop, they also have a huge amount of 50's and 60's barware, it's incredible. Kate is now on the hunt, I know she's going there today. Good shootin', Kate.

  1. The "China Inn", in PB, 877 Hornblend. This place has the cheapest and maybe the best Tiki Drinks in town, each comes in its own special mug. It has an extremely mysterious upstairs, too. The bathrooms are located upstairs in a big space, but you go outside and there isn't any upstairs, it's a one story building!

  2. The Mini-Putt is at the Paradise Point Resort, a great place. Bring a putter and ball and play for free anytime. Also try their Barefoot Bar after a long day of golf.

  3. This lobby is from Shelter Island's other tiki hotel, the "Island Palms". It's like Humphreys Half Moon's little sister, right next door.

Laytah.
