Callynne, are you in the hurricans path? Are you on high ground. We have been thinking about you all day. Do you know who's carvings are whose on the postcard at the Gallery? Cease called and said it was posted today.

I'm fine, Charlotte and Curtis, thanks for your concern!! We are getting lots of rain, they were calling for lots more and very high winds until midnight tonight but have changed that to lunch time today and said it isn't going to be as bad as predicted. Thank goodness!
I just checked out the postcard, I recognize your's, Nancy's and Teri's (her's is the dark blue one, right behind mine). Which is the Santa pushing the sled full of presents.
Are you going to the show? I'd love to but I won't be going until next year. I've already made sure hubby knows that so he can schedule vacation time for it. His idea of vacation time use is HUNTING! :

Thanks again for your concern!! Callynne

IT's good to know you are alright. These weather people can make things sound bad, but better to be safe than sorry. I was born and raised in Pensacola, Florida, so I know what those storms can cause.
I am glad to know the Santa with the sleigh is yours. We thought it might be! It is beautiful. We love the Sleigh and the Santa is very good too. It's hard to tell a lot as it is so small. Do you have him on your web page? With all the new sites and getting use to the board, it is hard to keep up with all the addresses. I've got to think of SOME system to put these sites on.
It looks pretty big. That's a real seller! I usually can reconize who they belong to, but don't know some of the others. They are all very good, eh?

Callynne, I forgot to say that we won't be going to the show. We both would love to go so much, but Curtis has been on oxygen sense last year and I guess we have just got to be content.. ( bad phrase ) with what we have. We are so fortunate to have a friend that sends us pictures of the show. They have their work in the Gallery. Their names are Larry and Jeannie Piety and they do such nice work. They are a very nice couple and live in Indianna.
Too bad we live so far away.

Boy, now I'm confused (and that just NEVER happens :

)
Who's on first ? Who did what on the postcard? I'm not even certain which one is mine

I think the second from left - in beige robe - is Al Longo.
Isn't the one with the top knot of hat in front and maybe string of lights around body by Marcia Berkall?
Which one is Larry Piety?
Somebody help me please.
BTW......if you want to see this postcard go to http://www/folkworks.com and click on 'coming attractions'

Nancy, Larry and Jeannie didn't get one in for the postcard this year. They have made a trip to see their daughter in Texas and couldn't get one in. He has just retired as a Principal in a High School. I thought that was Al Longo's but wasn't sure of the others. When the postcard comes out, they will have their names on the back and maybe we can figure the others out. I was wondering who had the big one with the quilt. Is Cease going to put the Santas on the web site like she did in July? That was neat, because you could see the carving bettr.
