Default Hi, I have good news!

Hello WCI people,
It's been awhile since my last post so I wanted to update you all on what's been happening with me I entered 5 wood carvings and 1 antler carving in the Puyallup State Fair here in Washington State. I won (3) 1st place (1) 2nd place and (1) 3rd place for my wood carving's. 1st place, Best in Category, and "Grand Champion" for my antler carving To me, that was like getting my first hit in little league, which was a looonnnggg time ago. It's one thing when your family and friend's tell you your carving's are good.......but I wanted to see what a panel of Judge's thought about my carving's. Anyway I am riding high at the moment and carving everyday, hope everyone is doing well here I can't get all 6 carving's on this thread but will post the last carving and some new one's in another thread.
