We'll see if summer ever gets here! Unlike John Haitt's song, this tiki bar ain't open yet . . .

We had a few nice shindig's this summer . . . we kicked things off with our mostly annual Memorial Day party, then a client event, my massive 50th birthday Pete-a-Palooza and a few smaller things here and there. This weekend is a Sunday Labor Day family gathering and there's an expected business event for my wife's company in September.

We'll also start movie nights with the outdoor screen and projector in the fall before closing up thanksgiving weekend.

Here are some pix from the Pete-a-palooza festivities, mostly CitiField, but some Flemingo Key in there.

Wow, what a great group of friends and family you have!
Pete-a-Palooza ruled......Those Citi Perks seats you were in at CitiField look amazing and to have a home run ball land by you must have been exciting (makes up for having to go see the Mets instead of another National League team in blue that just happens to be in first place in our division)......

That looks like scenes from a movie Peter! Nice!

Did anyone else spot the Magnum Tiki Mug? I did. He's right next to the 'Pete's Tiki Bar' sign. Nothing "Magnum" slips by me, fellas. :)

Just spotted a Magnum Tiki Mug on eBay if anyone's interested :D ... https://www.ebay.com/itm/MAGNUM-PI-Tiki ... 2516.l5255

Hey Peter,

You need to stock some of this Russian vodka behind the bar right next to your Magnum mug :wink: ......

By the way, Peter, when did you fall in love with Key West? Relatively few people outside Floridians (and even many of them) have a clue the association and back story RE: The Conch Republic.

Surprisingly, on my last trip to KW in 2011, it was tough to find a shirt with the actual logo/flag emblazoned on it.


Kudos on the oasis!!!
Trust Me!!!

I have always been intrigued by "the end of the road" and who winds up there. We finally got to the Keys New Years 2003/4. We stayed in Key Largo, which is my wife's fave place (http://snooks.com/) and did a day trip to Key West which wasn't the best idea (traffic, etc.) but we got back in 2006 and were hooked.

A tiki bar just wouldn't work in Canada. Well, maybe it might be believable in July or August, but somehow it wouldn't feel right sitting back in a wicker chair with a tropical drink in the middle of January with -20 degree wind chill and 2 feet of snow.

Every time I see the title of this thread, I think of the Chinese guy in The Sand Pebbles, saying "My tikee wrench! My tikee wrench!"

"My tiki bar! My tiki bar!"
