Nice looking Gene and I agree a 10+. I'm curious, did you start the carving before or after the longwinded afore mentioned discussion?

Thank all of you so much for the kind comments on the carving .. Lynn, Kenny , Bart , Tony ,Claude, Eddy,Jimmie, Don , Bob ,Mary , Hi Ho , Myron ..

It was alot of fun doing it ...

Bob .. To answer your question ..No I started carving it before the discussion .. but when I finished it .. I looked at him and thought .. well I wonder what he thinks he is ...And that's where I got the title for the piece ...

I thought .. I bet he doesnt care what he is .. he just loves to carve ..

Weather artist , craftsman , or woodcarver.. the real bond that we all have is simply we love to carve like he does .. Period

Thanks so much for everyones kindness .

God Bless

Gene, your little guys are neat, but I love your bigger pieces. You can put so much more detail. Great job. The museum should be proud to display that one.

Gene,
