So I thought I'd post some more pictures of my spoon carving endeavor. Really the only reason Im posting is because I have to share my love of apple wood. I sure do wish I could get actual boards of this stuff as it is my favorite woods of all the woods I've worked with, domestic or foreign. These pictures don't do it justice but in person the colors in this wood is incredibly beautiful. My skills in carving the spoons don't do it justice either but at least this small broken branch will live on.

My girlfriend and I went on a hike on my uncle's land in the woods. My goal was to maybe snag a branch or piece of a fallen tree. We were very impressed with how beautiful and untouched this land still is, just a great place to go walk through the woods. Happened upon probably the biggest pine I have seen in person, not necessarily the biggest diameter but the limbs coming off the tree were something else to see. Again the picture doesn't do this tree justice.
