Default Woo-hoo headed for the Smokies today!
Hello Gang,
I am taking my wife to the Smokey Mts. today. We are staying in a cabin near Pigeon Forge. I am going to go see Mac at Smokey Mountian Woodcarvers and make a visit with Allan Goodman. I want to get one of Allan's fine knives and also do a Video interview with him. I will post them on YouTube and my Blog for folks to see.
I need this vacation, it will be the first in a few years. I also am going to get set up to display and enter Competition at the Woodcarver show at Townsend next month.

Great Place to visit Gary. I have family down there so I've been in the pigeon forge area a couple times.

Gary,
Enjoy the vacation. Also good luck with your display. Things have a way of falling into place usually, kick back and have fun with the new knife.
Carve On,
Kadiddle
