lol..."that's when my drinking problem started"
yeah, I gotta finish this damned thing and get paid TODAY.
Gotta hit the road in the morning and head south for the week to see my grandfather, Benz, Will (carve) & Tom (aloha station). Looking forward to making sure my grandfather has a nice birthday, and spending some time learning some stuff from "the 3 wisemen".

ok, the "pilot moai" is done...
and wow....what a pain in the ass!!!
was a little more difficult than I thought, but it was a challenge and a learning experience.
And the dude who commissioned it is way cool, so I hope he's stoked on it....

well, I thought I was taking the week off, but turns out there's a big charity event for autistic kids here this week, so I gotta find some logs to make a piece or 2 for their charity auction.
Having a great time hanging out with gramps. Going fishing in the morning with my friend Joe Cav.
Good times.

Well, today is a very special day for me.
3 years ago today I made my first tiki.
I feel so indebted to everyone here for the encouragement & direction I've received on this little message board.
Benz, Will, Tom, 4wd Bill, Nixxy, Andy, and anyone else I've failed to mention. Some of you I've met in person, and some I've yet to meet, but I can't tell you guys how lucky I feel to be a part of this little thing we do, and to have you guys guiding and encouraging me. I can truly say I feel like we're brothers.
Thanks for everything....

Three years heh? That's great bro. Looking back through your thread it becomes very evident how much progress you have made over that time period. Your carvings are always getting better and that is what I feel it is really all about...improving.
The best part about all this is you still have plenty more carving to do and will only continue to improve. Imagine that stuff you will be cranking out in another three years. It certainly has been great viewing all your work, taking much of your advice and just enjoying carving more and more everyday and having a place to share it all with others.
Congrats on the milestone. Now lets go surfing.

Speaking as the parent of a child with a diagnosis on the spectrum, a big Thank You for that.
