I'm on the road again, and this week I found myself in San Diego, my favorite tiki town. I had the chance to stop in last night and enjoy a few Mr. Bali Hai Mai Tais at the Bali Hai Restaurant on Shelter Island. This was my first visit back to the Bali Hai after the remodel a few years back, and I was pleasantly surprised with the nice job they did updating the place.
On occassion, I get emails from readers asking me if I have a favorite building, or if I can point out a prime example of Polynesian Pop Architecture. My immediate answer is yes, I have a favorite and I got to visit her again today, lovely as ever.
The Crow's Nest Yacht & Ship Brokerage
The Crow's Nest exhibits several different classic elements of tiki architecture. I love this building, its got a great color scheme, it has a shake shingle roof, it has tropical landscaping, its small and intimate, its located on the ocean and finally it is surrounded by other Polynesian Pop Architecture found all across Shelter Island.

Having grown up in San Diego, Shelter Island was always a popular place. I love the tiki atmosphere of so many of its structures and has been inspiration for many projects of mine. Love your blog.
ReplyDeleteLove the extra outrigger beams at the bottom of each A-frame and angled "support" beams below them. They give the building not only a sense of motion (which us Googie fans always appreciate) but also the feeling that it's something more than a decorated box. A great building indeed. If I ever build my dream tiki house, I will borrow liberally from this design.
ReplyDeleteWhat a marvellous designs really very nice architecture. As now people use use different way to make their look amazing so tiki hut and make your place pleasing.
ReplyDeleteI completely loved this building and being a roofer, I never saw anything like this before. Traditional roof always take the cake with their simplicity and style.

Recently, I encountered a harrowing experience involving a fraudulent crypto asset brokerage. I had been saving a substantial amount of Bitcoin, totaling 1.5 BTC, with plans to invest through a reputable brokerage firm. My research led me to a search result on Google that seemed promising, featuring a top-ranked sponsored link to a website with the address mantao network. Upon visiting this site, which appeared to be professional and convincing, I was prompted to connect my crypto wallet. Naively trusting the site’s appearance and its purported legitimacy, I approved the connection request. Almost immediately, I noticed that my Bitcoin balance had been drained; within seconds, my entire 1.5 BTC was gone.In a state of panic, I quickly checked my wallet via my mobile app and confirmed that my balance was indeed zero. Desperate for help, I reached out to a workmate who is well-versed in cryptocurrency. Although my workmate initially took my concerns lightly, suggesting that there was nothing to worry about, he later referred me to a specialist who could potentially assist with such situations.This specialist was affiliated with a group called Cyber Tech Wizard . I reached out to them, providing detailed information about the incident and attaching the malicious sponsored link that had led to the phishing attack. Cyber Tech Wizard promptly reviewed the link and identified it as part of a scam operation masquerading as the legitimate Manta Network—a genuine and reputable platform in the crypto world.The team at Cyber Tech Wizard acted swiftly. They utilized their expertise in dealing with phishing and scam-related issues to initiate a recovery process. Thanks to their sophisticated tools and techniques, they managed to reverse the transactions and recover my stolen Bitcoin.Throughout this ordeal, Cyber Tech Wizard demonstrated exceptional professionalism and expertise. They kept me updated on their progress and reassured me during the stressful period. Their successful intervention not only restored my 1.5 BTC but also provided a valuable lesson in the importance of verifying the legitimacy of crypto-related websites and transactions.This experience underscored the significance of vigilance and caution in the crypto world. While the recovery of my funds was a fortunate outcome, it serves as a reminder to always double-check the authenticity of any platform or link before engaging with it, especially in the cryptocurrency space.
In my career as a virtual reality developer based in Illinois, I’ve always been diligent and careful with my investments. However, I recently fell victim to a sophisticated forex scam run by a company called Bitmax FX, which resulted in a loss of $128,000. Faced with relentless withdrawal fees and mounting frustration, I turned to Cyber Tech Wizard cybertechwizard@cyberservices.com. Their expertise proved invaluable, and they successfully recovered my funds in a remarkably efficient manner. The ordeal began when Bitmax FX lured me into their seemingly legitimate forex trading platform. The initial experience was enticing; their professional appearance and promising returns gave me confidence. The scammers behind Bitmax FX used convincing tactics, encouraging me to invest more money under the guise of securing high returns and safe investments. As time went on, I started encountering significant problems with withdrawals. Each attempt to access my funds was met with escalating fees and a series of excuses that delayed or blocked my transactions. It soon became clear that Bitmax FX was a fraud, designed to exploit and deceive rather than provide genuine trading opportunities. Realizing that I had been scammed was both disheartening and overwhelming. In my search for a solution, I discovered Wizard Web Recovery. Their reputation for assisting scam victims was highly recommended, so I decided to enlist their help. The process with Cyber Tech Wizard was smooth and professional from the start. They promptly gathered all relevant information and documented Bitmax FX's fraudulent practices. Their team demonstrated a deep understanding of financial scams and worked diligently to trace my funds and communicate with the necessary financial institutions. One of the most reassuring aspects of working with Wizard Web Recovery was their transparency and regular communication. They kept me informed throughout the recovery process and provided clear explanations of each step. This approach greatly reduced the stress and uncertainty I was experiencing. Thanks to Cyber Tech Wizard ’s dedicated efforts, my $128,000 was successfully recovered in a relatively short period. The relief I felt was immense, and I was deeply appreciative of their effective support. Their work restored my financial situation and alleviated the emotional strain caused by the scam. If you find yourself in a similar predicament with a fraudulent scheme like Bitmax FX, I highly recommend contacting Cyber Tech Wizard . Their expertise, professionalism, and commitment make them an excellent resource for recovering funds lost to financial fraud. My experience with them was overwhelmingly positive, and I am confident that they can provide substantial help to others facing similar challenges.cybertechwizard@cyberservices.com
ReplyDeleteInvesting can be a tricky endeavor. Many individuals venture into crypto trading hoping for quick returns, but the path can quickly become treacherous. With the promise of high rewards, it's easy to overlook the potential risks involved. I learned this the hard way when I lost over $50,000 to a scam broker. At first, I was excited about the prospects of cryptocurrency and the potential for significant profits. I had done my research, believed in my strategy, and was ready to dive in. However, things took a turn for the worse. I received persuasive communication from the broker, assuring me that my investments were safe and would yield impressive returns. I invested more and more, lured by their promises and the fear of missing out. Eventually, I realized that I was being scammed. My account was frozen, and I could no longer access my funds. The feeling of defeat was overwhelming; I felt trapped and frustrated, unsure of how to recover from this financial disaster. As I grappled with my loss, I began researching options to recover my funds. It was during this desperate search that I came across Blockchain Cyber Retrieve. At first, I was skeptical.

I started to feel empowered, knowing I had professionals from Blockchain Cyber Retrieve on my side, diligently working to help me reclaim my lost funds. After weeks of communication and persistent effort with Blockchain Cyber Retrieve, I was thrilled to discover that I had recovered 90% of my losses.
