Colin, I saw you but wasn't going to say it! But Bob said it and I have to concur!
James, Great job! I'm hoping I've never posted my picture on here! Maybe we should all post our pics and let you have at them! Nice work!

Oh boy Frank I really need to loose weight is that how I look to everyone? I can hear every one now saying "Poor Horse" trust me I wasent that heavy when I rode one. Funny what retirement and age do to you. Great carving though Frank and if it is supposed to me I take it as a compliment I have another carving that one of my friends did of me I will post it later. I always say if you cant take a joke you shouldnt have joined.

Jamesfa ... great work on the mouth of the wood spirit! Mouths can be fussy but have the curves just great!
