    Maple Trees Growing in My Gutters

    I was supposed to spend today cleaning out all my gutters. Dang maple trees try to populate themselves in all the wrong places.
    But I just wasn't in the mood...so I made this.
    It's a Maple and Walnut pedestal Vessel....stands a little over 9" high. Finish is spray gloss lacquer.

    That's a big "Wow"! Before I enlarged the picture, I thought I was looking at a fancy glass full of an ice cream sunday!

    So glad you are back John. I just enjoy looking at your beautiful pieces. Let those trees grow and make more beautiful turnings from them. Or find a college kid to clean the and still keep turning.
    When working I had more money than time. In retirement I have more time than money. Love the time, miss the money.
