    toot toot toot (my own horn)!

    I know its not a brand new piece but I recently started uploading photos to the AAW site and guess who had a piece selected for "turning of the week"? That be me!!! The piece I won 2nd place in the Beauty and the Beast contest (Beast category) was selected to be on the cover. Pretty cool to see it on the front page.

    Scott, in my efforts to reduce my time on the computer, I no longer visit any forums other than SMC - sorry I missed that!! A big congrats, and I am sure you are excited.

    Congrats, Scott! I rarely go to the AAW site, but that's quite an honor... That piece is spectacular, so I'm not surprised.
