The Aspens in Utah are beautiful this time of year! I spent a lot of time in the state in the 70. And they make a good walking stick .

Amen! I helped a family member move into a retirement community. Last month. Nice apartment ,Three meals a day , No utility payments, free Cable TV with a better package than I have and a lot of other benefits.

Hot and humid has stretched into late October. Not unheard of but unusual. The weatherman says fall will stay starting next week. But on the Gulf coast you just never know. Highs can range from the mid 50’s to 100 this time of year.

Well done. Fun group of carvings.

[Randy]

For a second carving you’re doing well. I would suggest you give some thought to safety. It is not safe to carve the way you are holding your project in your video.

That is how the Mississippi coast looked after hurricane Katrina hit. 28 foot storm surge in the Biloxi area. Total devastation. That is a risk we take when we choose to live on the gulf coast. It is always a matter of when it will come not if. We helped load a truck with food and cleaning supplies...

I have used and been pleased with Dockyard. I have a friend who recently got a Flexcut mico set and is very pleased with it. After seeing them and holding the tools they will be my next choice. They handled very nicely....
