The love of tiki started first from my grandpa, he moved the whole family....my dad and three siblings from Kentucky to California back in the early 1940’s I guess his ultimate goal was Hawaii. Later....early 60’s my dad would go to Tijuana and it was there that he met this beautiful exotic half Mexican half Chinese lady working at a pharmacy. The rest is history! He must have ordered a hula outfit in the mail for my my mom to wear (see photo) then later put the outfit on me (Other photo) Which is why I have these lovely photos. My dad passed away a while ago, my mom is still here and is as lovely as ever. I thank my grandpa and my dad for introducing me to the tiki lifestyle. The apple (pineapple) doesn’t fall far from the tree ?
