Well Joy, Theres alot of things I would love to do,things Ive thought of for years but too,I know I wont get them all done but its fun and keeps me busy like this practice carving.

Speaking of it, after I paint a dogs portrait this morning for a lady I saw at last wk ends show,Im going to redo this carving into something I know he is, seeing hes not a Troll or a Gnome. My dentist,hes a big time fisher man,he flys everywhere fishing and hes bought several of my carved or painted trouts,so I wont take this carving to him but you are right, if this guys teeth were $ 100.00 bills, I would be a millionaire!

Thanks Joy for your nice comments.Forrest
