THis is a garden Tiki sold by some purveyor in Hawaii, where they are very popular. They are way cool in the garden and some artists deal in wood, metal, clay, you name it! For those not in the know, a "Tiki" is a Polynesian thang, something you can still see in the architecture down here on South Padre Island.

Speaking of the Tikis, we're sponsoring another "Lighting of the Tiki Torch" on May 20th down here ... probably ending at the Palm Street Pier about 8:00 after a kayak ride down the bayside. Come on down, it is sure to be a blast!
