But it never really was as "Tiki" was created in the mainland, in an effort to capture the feel of the islands and bring it home, as an escape. Hawaii had so much to offer that there was no need to an escape once there. Ironically, once the Tiki craze became really popular on the mainland (1950's) it did spread back to Hawaii to a small degree.

Thanks for the plug. I caught wind of this and was going to do a post myself on the subject. I'm on the fence when it comes to rags like The Wall Street Journal doing subjects close to my heart. Could be good...could be bad. Just a heads up...The link you posted to my Tiki posts is broken. There is a word right before the HTTP: that has to be taken out of the address. I always like it when Monica and you post Tiki stuff! THANKS AGAIN! Brian Hey Pam.
