whoops double post: well to avoid being a complete waste of space I’ll add some details to my giant fish. I was on my best friends boat on a cold Saturday morning in March. It was the only fish caught that day, caught within the first hour on the water and after 9 more hours it was all we caught. He asked if I needed a net and I said I don’t think so. Luckily he used his best judgement and grabbed the net because no sooner was it in the net that my line broke. That’s what friends are for because I would’ve been pissed if I lost it. I should’ve known better because it was a rocky bottom and my jig had been caught up a few times before catching it so the line was weaken but I ended up landing it anyway thanks to my favorite fishing buddy. So that’s the story and my attempt to turn wasted space into a boring fishing story.

Great fish mate. Nope not boring.
LOL I wouldn’t put it past China! They’ve got a huge population too.
Now that'd give a whole new meaning to the song "I like Chinese" wouldn't it.

And I don’t give my seal of approval all willy nilly. The originality, creativeness, and execution turning a small piece of wood into a Rooster is brilliant. Therefore Mr. Meowgi came away with the first seal of approval given out at VU. Cocka—Doodle—DoYou gave him the Rooster seal of approval!
If I could hand out banners; you sir would have a seal of approval one.
I have no idea what he’s doing... been laying like that for 5mins already
My terrible two brat that badly needs a haircut

Those are so cool @2WhiteWolves!!! My kinda place!
Wasn’t going to post this... husband hates it. But this is the painting I did yesterday. I wanted to go extreme abstract with it and I believe I did. It’s ok if y’all don’t like it. Won’t bother me.
Got wood? I see a ladle and a spoon for sure. Not sure about the larger pieces yet
What kind of wood is that? Cedar?
Pipe, though you'd have something leftover. I also see Graham Noodles in the other pieces.
It's actually juniper. Removed a ton of it today at work. Was so giddy cutting it up. Like yep this one's mine. Lol
Are you going to dry it out? How would mrs meowgie feel about juniper in the oven a few hours?
Fwiw, I don't actually know wtf I am talking about. I just know kiln drying wood is common practice
Most times carving green is easier then just let it dry. But you can carve dried. It's just tougher. With canes and walking sticks sometimes they split while drying. Smaller like I got today I'm hoping won't split.
I've read that with walking sticks, drying takes about a year per inch of thickness.
The gin fumes got to you? Lol
When I was racing cross country, the coolest trophy I ever got (and from the most grueling race I ever raced in) was a 2 inch thick slab of a tree, bark and everything. They wood burned the details of the race into it and then varnished it. The race was called "The Barb Wire 100”.
It's now in to pieces because the wood wasn't dry when they made it.

Sucks it broke apart but that's awesome that it was a wooden trophy
My little dog does the same thing when he's laying down and you go to pet him. Raises his leg like he's thinking "look at ma dick" lmao

It's like being surrounded by diamonds, I know what you mean. Hopefully, you have some awesome moonlight views, if even only for yourself.
Cool pics, thanks for sharingCon't...inside
