Its hard to beat that s what happen to Lori
I can still see us in her studio ,Her showing those georgeous carvings
and I see her running from there to the house
Too bad it was not filmed
One stupid thought comes to MY mind
This happened in 1990 we had been to Branson for a week of caracature
carving
and I made up my mind I was gonna make six sport related carvings
Cut them all out with band saw all the same hight
And one was a hunter carying a gun in one hand and in the other he had a
duck holding by his neck and another has some fish and so on
Had one left to finnish and I did not want to repeat my self so one early
morning I carved a little racoon wich was being held by the scuff
AFTER I made Thea a morning coffee
I brought in my latest carving (as proud as a peacock )
and said LOOK what I made this morning
Thea looks at the carving looks at me and back to the carving and asked
WHY IS HE CARRYING A PENGUIN??????????
Ps I made a new one and still save the Coon penguin
It keeps me HUMBLE!!!!!!
