Had the pleasure of meeting fellow creeker Don Alexanader today as his family is traveling for the Christmas holiday. Wonderful people and he gave me a sweet pen that he turned!

I wonder who else wills how up now that a few pieces of that burl are sitting here...lonely...looking for a home haha!

Sounds like fun even though it's a little hard to believe there are no shots when a visit involves a professional photographer! Guess we'll settle for the pen as proof!

Sorry David, I was in the middle of roughing bowls when he showed up and didnt want to tick the wife off going inside covered in chips and we was busy jawing haha.

Thomas, great folks are getting them to play with over the holiday!

Well, you can add him to the list of Creekers that have blessed your property, Ken. I've thought about hanging pics in my shop of each Creeker that has come by. Still might some day, but how to get ones of those who I didn't get pics of...?

It was raining when Peter showed up, and raining when he left...no gear in the rain unless there is a paycheck involved LOL!

John, both visits have had the fellers looking at your piece of burl....both commented "I cant wait to see what John does with that". Have your ears been ringing haha!
