Hi Brian: Great Santa for a great cause. You have found the secret of being a successful carver....sharing with others! I've found that by donating carvings to worthy causes, I can contribute far more value than by reaching into my shallow pockets. You're onto the secret! Congratulations.

Ed

Thank you all for the nice comments on this piece. I know the person who is bidding on it wants it for his Mother in Law. She collects Santas. I hope she likes it as much as you all have.

Brian
