Default Uncle He-Lie

Living with my grand mutter,also my uncle Eli,course my grand mutter cant talk too plain, calls him He-lie for he lies all the time about his drinking!

For-head{she cant say Forrest too plane either} Goes down to Betty's big bottem creek and brings home your drunk uncle,He-Lie. Ok grand mutter!

Coming ups on the creek sure enough there was He-lie with his head in the water. Whats you doing uncle??{{ Trying to catch theses darn fishes!}} Ok lets goes home,I'll helps you. Arriving at home,Wait!! I halves to use the baths room.{our out house} He fell to his knees getting sick over the hole in the out-house. I just walked off cause there was a big storm coming in.

Later uncle He-Lie crawled in the fronts door,{{{I've Been SAVED!!}}} I tolds the good Lord please lets me stop being sick and he touched me!!!

Course Id had my eye on him, he was touched all right when the wind blew the out-house door hard on his back-end!!

This carving is 1 7/8's inches wide at the bottem of the base and tall from the tip of his hat to the bottem of the base at 3 7/8s of a inch. Painted with acrylics. Just a fun carving and your thoughts or comments are always welcome.

Thanks,Forrest

Are you sure he wasn't in the outhouse when the wind blew it over? That's why he's touched. Ha! Ha! Great paint job Forrest!
