Default "The Committee"

Just thought I'd show what kind of neighborhood I live in. These are some of the old geezers that stopped by to check on the celebrations New Years Eve. As you can tell from their expressions, they are really a lot of fun. Thanks for looking. They are 3" tall from basswood.

Like them all but the little old geezer in the middle. He looks like he had way to much on New Years Eve.
