Default Little Hobo's

These guys are headed for the Casey Jones Railroad Village in Nashville Tenn .. Never been there .. but I hear it's quite unique .... The director told me their going to start a display soon to Hobo's and she wanted to see a couple of my little fella's .. Do you think she will like them ? Hope so ...
They are both 3 inches tall and carved from basswood and a old piece of sugar pine I found I still had ..
Thanks for letting me share ..
Gene

Of course if she likes them and puts them in the show they have a job and can no longer be considered HoBo's. However, as they look so good, I hope they get off welfare!
