Forrest,

That is a neat little carving that your friend gave you. I poted to your response to the little clown a minute ago and said those ole boys that were messing with your chair at the show better be careful or they might end up with wheel tracks on their backs, Looks like you been practicing.LOL

Safe Carving and God Bless,

Mark

That is absolutely wonderful. Well done and makes my day. I've been hauling 40lb sacks of pellets into the house for the stove. Have to lift each one twice so I figure 4,000 lbs, 25F and a nasty N. wind. Crab, crab, crab. No carving this afternoon.

Hi Forrest!!! Good to see you carving some 'interesting' things again!!! Ha! Your latest carving reminds me of a time years ago when I and several other teachers went to a mtg. and on the way home we noticed the State of California Dept. of Transportation traffic stripe marking crew had painted over a road kill on one of the off ramps!!! Can you imagine that! The fellow sitting on the little painting deck must have thought he was being funny when he painted right over the roadkill and kept right on going...looked alot like your carving!!! We laughed all the way back home that evening!!! Fun, fun, fun!!! Keep'em up and we'll keep on enjoying your carvings!
Continued good health and safe carving to you my friend!!!
Kenn
