Tikitender, Out.

Today was a day to end an era.  After nearly 9 years, I gave up my last shift at the Golden Lion in Flagler Beach.   Because of my committments to my two businesses (The Humidor Cigar Lounge and Fun Coast Bartending), I had dropped my time at the Lion down to just one shift per week.   My last “Sunday Funday” shift was today.   The Golden Lion and I enjoyed a great partnership since June of 2005 and I had history there before I became an employee.  If you visit the Lion, you will be walking on tiles that my Dad laid there many years ago.  Life is about balance and, frankly,  I needed a day off.    Cheers to the Marlows and all the great customers I met there over the years.

My days of pouring drinks at The Golden Lion have come to a close.
