 Thought about something different as far projects, like something i could sell easier and cheaper. So a UK, Ohio State, and U of L Plus  a sign that has my marker mark and blog site info I can leave on products. Plus a serpent mound

Enter the Dragon

 The wildest and far from my comfort zone is the dragon bottle holder. It started with just the head, but it needed more, and a hand like cedar limb that I've had off a tree I cut at the farm 25yrs ago was just the thing for a crazy claw to hold a bottle. The teeth were probably the hardest, cut like dentures and installed. 2 days itself, but it turned out great and the tongue set it off

AND IT CONTINUES

I put a stove in the garage to extend my time doing stuff. Never had heat outside so  a lot of crafts stopped until it got warm. Not now, and the first project another cardinal abet bigger and better I think. Next enter the dragon. Normally I wouldn't preview a project until it's complete, but I feel different on this on, something special.

More carving

 As the Covid continues on I'm doing my best to keep busy and stay isolated. So I carved 3 more birds 2 hummingbirds and a cardinal. Still utilizing the cedar I got from my friend Heather in Louisville. I couldn't be happier than the way they turned out. I think I even have one sold

Birdbrain

 I guess cabin fever has set in of sorts. I have this urge to carve so carve I have. I started with the bird of prey, then the owl. The owl took almost twice the time as the other, and I'm learning as I go. EHD is still running hard as I've found 2 more bucks dead, including a huge 10pt. Haven't had a buck on trail cam for over a month. That has never happened as that I've had trail cameras out year round for the last 7 years. pretty depressing, I was lucky to have harvested my buck as the EHD hit just days after my harvest. I'm sure other big bucks will return to what I refer to as "The Valley of Bucks". I knew the menu bear had to have a home at Amyz"s Pub in Lullville, so of coarse they were thrilled when Tawny and I showed up to donate it. I needed to as a sort of healing with all this made up Covid shit. Your only contagious certain hours of the day, lying fucks. This is an assault on our freedom. I never thought I would see the day. On a plus we survived a roll over crash coming home from the Hill. Dusty ,but unscathed, freaking Tawny flipping off death twice in 3 months. You go girl.

Carpe Diem.
