I'll be woodburning a Carolina Wren and working with some
plans for a Nuthatch.

Just recieved some roughouts from Tim Berry I am really excited to start carving them so today will probably be a santa carving day.

Golfed this morning. Wife's BDay so guess fishing is out this afternoon. So will carve a bit on something or maybe paint some of the backlog waiting for color. and then out to dinner.

what a buncha bums! (LOL)

all this while some of us have to work for a livin!!!

the weather forecast is for snow,freezing rain, rain and hi winds.so decided to stay home and do a little burning on my duck.and maybe later start thinking about my next project.

Well,it's snowing here AGAIN! Still went out for a 4 mile walk in the snow. Then got back into the dungeon and started working on finishing the line drawing of #950 Decapod. Probably six more hours work on the drawing. Got the old beam cut to size, and the ends stained to match the surface patina. 'Nuff for today.

Have been busy the past two days.....mostly painting.

I FINISHED the hunter and dog scene!!! Painted it last night and mounted all the pieces on the base tonight. It's ready for the Charlotte show (tomorrow and Sunday). This weekend will be full of carving, shopping for new tools, and talking with lots of my seldom-seen carving friends.

My favorite part is the whittling contest on Sat and Sun. Tom Wolfe 'promotes' this event and we generally have about 20 carvers goin' at it for about 1 1/2 hours.
