Way to go Fred. There is no doubt in my mind that any carving you enter will be best in show. I guess there are probably other great carvers in the world but having seen one of yours, I know the competitors will gulp when they see what they are up against. Conrats there buddy.

Thank you everybody - it has been a while and it is so nice to hear that you appreciate the carving; I have heard that the picture is the new issue - it has not made it here yet.
Thanks again.
Fred
