Default Colin is back from Ridgway PA

Hi gang,
Just arrived home from the Ridgway chainsaw carving Rendezvous in Ridgeway PA. Left last wednesday and now I am home sitting at my computer tired but I had a wonderful trip. For those of you that dont know Ridgway is a very small town in PA that in February every year carvers from all over the world and from coast to coast in the US and Canada all end up in Ridgway to carve a piece that is then auctioned off on the saturday to raise money for the "Make a Wish Foundation". These carvers at their own expence make their way to make a difference in some childs life. This year we raised $43,000.00 for Make a Wish.
I am a little tired so I will make sure that I will post some of the pictures when I get a chance. Tomorrow I will have to make an effort to catch up on all the news on this board. Oh by the way Bob Duncan and his lovely wife were on hand at the event. We had a chance to visit as well I was able to visit with Callylyn as well. Will fill you in on all the news later.
Colin
