Wes had a half day yesterday due to weather and went to Tiki Murph's to talk to their guest carver. It seems that Tiki Jim is from the Tampa area. He has been carving for over 20 years and he mentioned that his mentor is a gentleman named Tiki Bob from the same area.
Tiki Jim spent hours with Wes showing him his work and different technics of carving. What a nice person. Oh, I also want to post a Tiki Moon that we have of his that is really cool. He showed Wes exactly how to carve that Moon step by step. In fact he said "go ahead and copy it, that what it's about, sharing" Tremendious person he is indeed.
I need to get over there on Friday and see him before he goes back to Florida.
