Default I'm Back

Good Morning Everyone.
Sorry I have not been participating but I just finished up with chemo treatments that really knocked be for a loop.
All is good and I an feeling much better now. I am looking forward to picking up the carving tools and getting busy.
Since my last post we have begun a new carving group in Portland Indiana. We are called the Jayland Carvers and we meet every Wednesday evening at 6PM in the Jay County Community Center or better known as the Boys Club. Our group is open to all who are interested in carving. We currently have around 8 carvers that meet regularly and another 8 that have some conflicts and show up when they can. We welcome you to join us anytime.

I wish everyone a Happy New Year.
Jerry

Jerry,
Welcome back. Glad that you are doing better. We will pray that all goes well with your treatment. I've been to Jay county a time or two, mostly school events for the kids and such. Hope your tools slide right back into place quickley and smoothly.

Safe Carving and God Bless,

Mark

Welcome back, Jerry,
Glad you're back and putting Chemo behind you. Hope the complete recovery goes well. Getting back to carving will be great therapy--for body and mind.

Good news about the carving group. It's a great way to build interest in carving and help each other.
