Congratulations many times over! You inspired me to start carving - although not on your scale.

We attended the chainsaw carving show at Shippensburg and saw your masterpiece. It was beautiful and you definitely deserved the "best of the show" ribbon. Congratulations! Hopefully you'll attend next year's show in PA and we get to see you outdo the Harry Potter carving. 😀

I did not this year! It's tough because I'm in northern Maine and you can't fly chainsaws...so I would have to do the drive with a trailer of tools and it's a haul! So I'm a bit stuck over here on the east coast! Occasionally events will have tools to borrow but they are usually reserved for the international carvers

you're so gorgeous and skilled
