Thanks Mr. B, I wish I could carve a likeness of people, as I would love to carve some of our past American Heros. I've tried a few times, but with disatrous results, I need to take some classes...

I look forward to your Santa pics when you get the chance. I think everyone should try their hand at carving once or twice, it's great therapy and 'ya get to use your knives! ::tu:: ::tu::

Thanks again for your kind words Mr. B.
