Default Yeeeeehaaaaww

I guess all the Quigley carving messages got me to thinking about cowboys. I have never carved a cowboy hat. I know that sounds weird for someone in Oklahoma, but I hadn't. Been having a bit of trouble lately carving and even concentrating but I think he still turned out ok. I am not sure if I will make him a bottle stopper or a walking stick topper.

He needs a bit more touch up but here he is right now.

Thanks Jimmy Joe. I guess I am on a red head kick too! Maybe it is all the white outside. Makes me want color.
