This past weekend at Tiki Caliente 7 at he Caliente Tropics, 5 new shields by Bosko were added to the hotel grounds, completing the project that was started years ago with the Easter Island shield and ten suspended by the previous owners. This rededication ceremony was really a highlight of the weekend. There are other little touches happening around the Tropics as well. I don't know the full details, but it sounds as though the newest owner has an interest in the upkeep (perhaps recognizing the current interest in the style). Anyway, here's some current photos from the Caliente Tropics.

The existing Easter Island shield.

I even got to use the little bar off to the side of the restaurant for my rum symposium. It was a great space to be in.

I have full resolution versions of most of these photos on Flickr in my photo stream.
