Now serving

This bowl was made from an oak burl, I kept the bark on the outside because I like the color and texture. The grain pattern inside the bowl is very nice.

Cold blooded carvings

I made these walking sticks awhile back, they are both carved from dogwood.

Hey whittle whittle

This ornament was carved from cherry wood, for friends of ours who operate a dairy farm.

Walking whale no fluke

This walking stick is from a sycamore tree that lost many limbs in a recent storm. The last photo shows the stick standing next to that tree.

Emma and Henry

Emma and Henry are enjoying our very early spring this year.

Aging well

This carving gets better looking every year, I wish I could say that about myself.

Live music at the Folly

Last weekend our friends Adele, Bob and David from Charleston SC came to town and treated us to a concert from the porch of the Folly. Our garden was transformed into a magical, dream-like place with great music, friends and fun (the rum didn't hurt either). Wow! Thank you so much, guys!

Croakin' crooner

This fellow has been living in our little pond for at least four years now. He likes to serenade us with his deep voice.

Mast production

I made this a few months ago, the boat is carved from teak wood and the base is black walnut.

This is for the birds

My grandsons were visiting a few weeks ago and they made bird houses to take back home to Virginia. They designed them to look like barns and painted them white and red. This picture is of one of them ready for painting. Nice, huh?
