Had a great weekend with Ross and Barb Oar from New York.They taught a number of Santa rough-outs and the class had a really fantastic time.Ross has a very neat way of carving and painting,his visit was enjoyed by all.

Hello Mark,
I was happy to read your post about Ross and Barb as I had been wondering lately how they were doing. This last year was a rough year for them. They usually do our show in the spring and he was supposed to judge the state fair here last Feb but health problems and a death in the family kept them from it at the last minute. They are nice folks. I will look forward to them being at our show this coming March. I think they winter about 60 miles from here.
