Big Tiki Score On The Cape

Saturday, August 13
Took a drive & spotted a cool place called Atomic Dimestore at the end of Main St. in Hyannis. Went in to check the place out & walked out with a very cool, 3 foot Tiki. This vacation just keeps getting better!

Roadside Kitsch On The Cape

Friday, August 12
Headed out early for breakfast at The Pancake Man in South Yarmouth. This place is a great slice of Roadside Americana. Food was good & I picked up a Pancake Man mug to take home. For dinner, we made it a double-kitsch day & visited Tiki Port in Hyannis. Food was excellent & although there were only a couple of Tikis, the place was virtually unchanged from the 70's.

Tiki Hunting On The Cape

Thursday, August 11
Dropped the girls off at the beach & headed for the Yarmouth Antique Center in search of Cape Cod Tiki! Scored 4 mugs; 2 Westwood & 2 marked Enchanto Company, Burbank, CA & a set of Conch Shell S&Ps that match my Sea Goddess bowls from Hawaii Kai. Met the girls at the beach & soaked up some rays for a coupla hours, then headed out for a game of Mini-Golf at Putter's Paradise in W. Yarmouth. This is a pretty neat place that, despite some "upgrades", still maintains much of its original kitsch. Traveled further down Route 28 & had some killer fish tacos at Finbars in Orleans for dinner. What a great day!

Horseshoe Crab Cove

Wednesday, August 10
Ventured out for a drive & came to the cove where we'd always found horseshoe crabs, befoer. Unfortunately, this time, all the ones we found were deceased! I did find 3 nice specimens to bring home for my Tiki Lounge. Their spirits will live forever!
