seeks as always another masterpiece. I think the cracks make it even better.

You carved through the cracks of your log and this is very ingenuous because after being finished, it will look very ancient.
Hat's off Capt'n Seeks.

It was really great meeting you. Your carves have been great inspiration to me. Standing next to your gods inspired me to get back home and carve. I came back from Washington with a bunch of good cedar logs. Thanks again for the two great logs you hooked me up with. I will return the favor one day. It sure is nice and warm here compared to WA. I now know for certain why I moved.

Howdy all. Slow going on the headdress I have spent all week
working on the chevrons.
He is coming along ok the back side is alittle sloppy i think.
