Default A "Tellico Bear"

The local high school in the nearest incorporated town up in Tennessee where we have our cabin call themselves the "Tellico Bears!" Just for fun I thought I'd whittle one!

Awwwwww, this one's got a great expression, Eddy. Love him to pieces! Is it going anywhere, or are you keeping him? I'd love to know how many different "Eddy" bears you've done since you've been carving them. Bonnie

Thanks Doug! I've just found that folks seem to like them and they make good thank you gifts so I just try to let my imagination go wild.
