Default Greetings from Calgary

Hi Gang,
As you know I was out of town to see my new grand daughter and purchase a new truck. Well I have just accessed a computer and just wanted to say hello. My new grand daughter is absolutly beautiful and so is the new truck. I pick up my new truck on Wednesday and will be driving back next Sunday so I still have a week stay left. I am going to the Rockies Sunshine Village with the grandson who went with me and we will be doing some snowboarding and then the long drive back to Ontario. I am really missing the carving cant wait to get back to it. Hope everyone is well just stopped in to say hi
Colin

Glad to hear that you're having a good trip and visit. Surely you took just a few carving blades with you... and if not then it sure must be hard living with yourself but I'm sure those grandkids fill in the carving "void" quite well!

I appreciate the chainsaw carving forum link that you gave me some time back and I'm learning so much from visiting there. I'm still in the lurking stage there but it sure is a good site for learning the art from some very generous chainsaw carvers who also enjoy sharing their skills!

Well, have a great last week and drive safely!

Congratulations on the new Granddaughter Colin. Hope you enjoyed your time together, though I'm sure it is all too short. Nice to be able to take your Grandson along. I imagine he's having a ball. I assume the snowboarding is something "he'll " be doing and not you!!!

Good to hear from you, have a good trip back.

Bob
