That's too cool, Vic! There's a place off the beaten path in Pickens County, SC where an old farmer type guy has a little roadside village of miniature houses, general stores, a mill house with a waterfall/water wheel, etc.. Many tourists stop and take photos on their way to the mountains (especially near Xmas when it's all decked out with lights and stuff)-he even has a donation box--well worth a buck or 2.
Just had me thinkin'-- A roadside miniature Polynesian Village. I think you're the man for the job!

"Jungle Trader, Painter of Light"? NOT.
Here's Chongolio's biz card design for me that I painted on 4 x 8 plywood and hung on my front fence. I told Randy I wanted a Jungle man swingin' from a vine in a jungle scene....this is what he came up with. PERFECT! Just what I wanted. That's me swingin' on the vine btw. Shouldn't have any trouble finding my own house anymore after a night out with Cleen and Hat.

I've been here. Thanks Mooney and Surfin.
Been carving some Marqs on crappy old petrified splintery palmwood. Good practice for when I cut into some English Walnut soon.

Here's a couple new pals hangin' out. I'm on a Marquesan kick lately. See the half buried pirate chest? Where can I get cheap costume jewelry? Lots of it.
Below image, look carefully to the left of center and you'll see my pet alligator. The neighbor dogs don't bark much cuz they know the peril that awaits. Chickens are a little scarce too.

The backyard is looking great! That's a real labor of love there. Must be pretty atmospheric at night.

Vic, you're a triple threat, man. Carver, landscaper, decorator. (And JT's one of the original "Carving Post" crew.)
