Default out and back

Just got back fom Madison and had a chance to see the Trolls of Mt Horeb on the way and in the words of a 60s throwback " They was Far Out! ". I couldn't seem to locate the artist however. Does any one know the where abouts of this person. I would like to ask his permission to borrow ideas from his sculptures.

Well I went to his web page and got his email adx and sent him a quick note. About 15 minutes later I get a call from the guy. What a nice fellow! We chatted for a few minutes and and he gave me some tips and words of encouragement. I wouldn't be real supprised if we heard from him (not trying to twist your arm ar anything Mr. Feeney) How often does that happen?

ElWood, It was nice to be of assistance......and my wife says that I'm no help. -> She just doesn't know the right questions!!!!

I have seen the site before, but sort of let it slip from memory. You actually helped me by bringing it back.
