Thanks Mark and Forrest.

Forrest, I spoke with you a few minutes in front of some of your carvings and Mark, every time I started to stop you, you got cornered by someone else so I never did get to meet you. Yes, I did the "Abe" carving. I had one of Sarah Palin that I was going to enter but one of the lens in her glasses fell out and I did not have time to replace it.

Thank you both for your kind words.

Chuck

You certainly were!!! Fantastic job on all your carvings, Chuck.....It's hard to believe you've only been carving a little over a year....OMG!!! McCain is my favorite, but it's really hard to pick. Fabulous job! Bonnie
