[Woodcarver] Whatcha carvin'

[Loren Woodard]

Dave:

I'm working the John Engler booth at Silver Dollar City for the Fall Craft 
Festival again this year.  I completed two large Santas this week, both 
being about 14" tall, a rolling pin with a Santa Face in the round and a 
considerable amount of holly on it, three bottle stoppers and a couple of 
small ornaments.  I will be doing Santa for the next couple of months.  I 
love carving Santas but they do get a little old after a while.  If anyone 
from the list comes to Silver Dollar City during the Fall Craft Festival on 
the weekends look me up.  I'm in a booth next to the saloon. (What a place 
to be!  :o))

Thanks for asking.  I like reading what everyone else is doing.
