Tiki Rancher heads to St Pete Beach for the SSTP at the POSTCARD INN

Check it out! Thanks to my bro Jeff Choinard of Surf Soul Tiki fame...one of the best tiki carvers in the country.  He set me up with Dean Hurst "Dir of Spirits" at Sideberns in Tampa. They have organized a great event the first weekend of June at the Postcard Inn.  3rd annual Sunset Tiki Party is going to have Tiki Rancher build two custom bars and a portable 10x10 palapa! Another mission I can't resist.  I'm taking the whole tiki clan down to the beach and rocking the event.  Here are some pics of the hotel - If you are in the Tampa area you must come out. 

First Party of the Year - BUNKO in the HUT

It was Jen's turn to host the Bunko party this month...luckily the weather cooperated and it was a complete success! I came home from a long two days of harvesting bamboo and found 15 beautiful women in my hut....with drinks already made! Way to end the day! 

Spring comes to the backyard

Spring has come slow to the south this year...April 7th and it is finally warm enough to start sprouting leaves and my sod I planted last year is starting to green again...I was getting worried. The storms last week took down a big pine on the edge of my fire pit area.  Looks like I need to bust out the chainsaw. 

City of Roswell approves final inspection on the HUT

After over a year of dealing with my HOA, and the City of Roswell - the final inspection was this morning and I got approved!  Should be over with any more hoops to jump through....I want to thank my asshole neighbor for the hassle but it did in the end make it totally legit and safer due the railings I installed.  

Tiki Rancher visits Mississippi

What an amazing place to build a Grand Hut! Teamed with Southern Bamboo, we will be building a hut with awnings on the front and rear of the hut. 

Sign up to follow and watch the progress. We should start building next month.

Mahalo

Newest Hut site in Mississippi

The guys at Southern Bamboo have commissioned the next hut to be built.  The Royal Grand Hut will be customized with awnings and with a level build site will offer more options than the original hut in my yard. 

Thanks Sean and Tom! you Rock....lets build many more! 

The New Year is off with a bang!

Well the world didn't end on the 21st....thank god...2013 is starting off with a bang! 

Took a trip down to Southern Florida between Christmas and New Year with my awesome family! We did many new things including flying a Jet Lev (water powered jet pack) took an airboat ride in the everglades and finally got the chance to carve a palm tree log...even though the log was not the best type to use...its all I had. Kaitlin even got in on the act! check it out...

Found some awesome rattan furniture and a 1959 Cadillac - can't think of a better start!
