Default The show must go on
This is another show in Payson Az. that I went to.On the day that I was leaving I dropped my trailer tong on my fingers and got 25 stitches. Not one of my better day's.But the show must go on. I did five quick carve shows in a day and a half. I gave one to a charity and gave two away on a free drawing. All in all it was a good weekend.

sounds painful. I too like your benches and want to know what you use for a finish on the seats, looks glossy.

I bet that hurt I can only imagine. Your a trooper though to go on with the show. Do you find that bears sell best? It seems every time I do a show all the people want bears.
