Default baba want a date

this is a carving I just finished ...(117 th.carving )......and I sold it within 2 min......my first wife bought it. actually the ony wife I have ever had.( 47 years )..... got the idea from a card someone sent me . it was signed by I think a guy named ...nate owens ? could not read it very well.( not much schooling) lol ...the true colors do not show up right in the pictures blame the photographer. it's 81/2 inches tall including the base. it was carved from one piece of wood. from 1 to 10 it was a 10 at being fun to carve. feel free tp pick it apart . if it's to bad I won't read it anyway...lol
