OMG No! No live palm trees. Inflatables.
We have enough palm trees around the facility - just none in!
Along with everything else over there...BEWARE Of coconuts and dates ( talking of the fruit that grows on trees!) falling from the sky.

5 flower hair clips
14 hula skirt can covers
20 folding hibiscus fans
12 leis with flip flop
4 coconut bras
4 black toucan ball caps
2 blue parrot caps
2 med. & 4 large natural color grass skirts (the plastic kind w/ velcro waist)
2 med. & 4 large green grass skirts (same as above)
2 med. multi-color grass skirts (same as above)
In addition, we'll have about 4 or 5 large hawaiian shirts that are in good condition that one of our members have outgrown.
(I realized after the fact that I posted this on the t-shirt thread instead of this one!)

We have enough palm trees around the facility - just none in!
Along with everything else over there...BEWARE Of coconuts and dates ( talking of the fruit that grows on trees!) falling from the sky.

I can't remember the last time I had a date. Huh? What? Ohhhhhhh! He meant the eating kind. Nevermind.

Hey!
I have a question maybe former service personnel can answer.
When you're composing a "to any soldier" message, what is an appropriate greeting?
"Dear service man or woman" sounds pretty hokey.
