All great carvings big D but I particularly like your woodspirits and that fellow in the middle of the two characters.

Very nice Dave, I also like the painting. I was told before by a friend who is a logger when he first seen my carvings, it was a weird way to dry firewood, to that I replied it is the most expensive firewood you'll ever see.

Very nice, Dave. I think I also like the wood spirits best, or is it the Santas?
