I’d like to present to you this article by Don Logay. He reached out to me a couple months ago and asked if I could help him out with information for an article he was going to write about living the tiki lifestyle.

Don really did his homework and his write up on the tiki lifestyle covers all the bases! Click on Tiki Lifestyle by Don Logay or you can read it here in Vegas Legal Magazine

What do you do when Billy Crud carves you a six-foot tall tiki?
You build a home tiki bar to put it in!
Angela and Michael’s Enchanted Klinki Room is not a spelling error! It’s a play on their last name Klingenmeier also, Angela has been a fan of Disney’s Enchanted Tiki Room since she was a kid, so I’d say Enchanted Klinki Room is the perfect name for their home bar. Not only did Billy Crud carve the first tiki for Angela and Michael, but he helped with the build of the tiki bar itself and the end result shows, the Enchanted Klinki Room is incredible!

It’s all about escapism. It really is.
We all work hard and we all get into our own routines. One day turns into the next and before you know it you’re a decade older. Sometimes being able to escape from your day-to-day life and pretend you’re somewhere else is not only fun, but I think needed! Besides Disney, no place does escapism better than Las Vegas, NV.
Just walk down the Las Vegas Strip and choose your own adventure. Want to stay in a medieval castle? Want to be whisked away to Paris? How about New York City? Or even spend a weekend in a pyramid? You can do all these things and after a couple drinks, you’ll forget that you’re in the middle of the desert!
