[Woodcarver] What you all carving?

Jim

Thank you for the information you have given me so far, sounds like lots 
of things to do and see there.   As for the Fish Carving Championship, 
it is held at the Convention Center in St Charles, MO which is attached 
to the Embassy Suites.  Their is 2 parts to it, one part is the World 
Taxidermy Championships and the other part is the World Fish Carving 
Championships.  If you Google or Bing either of these sites you will 
find lots of information on both of them.   My wife and I were there for 
the 2009 Championship and had a good time, but seemed like we were 
pretty busy so did not get to see enough of the sites.  Did manage to 
see one of the riverboats (Ameristar) and also did spend a little time 
in the old part of the city.  The Arch and Zoo sounds like it will be 
things we need to take in.  We are into crafts, arts, of course carving 
and I guess art in general.   Yep, I also like trains, (used to be a 
depot agent) so railroad is in my blood.  :o)

The snow starts on May 3rd and I think we will be leaving on May 8th or 
9th.....   Then we are heading to the Tulsa, OK area where my wife will 
be taking some watercolor classes.   After that then who knows where.

Thanks again Jim
