My Mom claimed that I was dropped on my head "one real good time" as a kid.....just like a watermelon....."split"...... I'll bet that's it.

Thanks for the waves all...it keeps me going.

Well, little went a little further on the alter (humm, Put-Put...tiki put put...yeah!). Had it all unclamped...I might want to toe it into side islands, that I still have to put together yet, just for added strength...but hey, she stood ground pretty well like this. The roof is held in place only by these 4 broom hooks that I bent up around a pole. Roofs is pretty light....lifts right off.



Good place for a carving...after the wedding.

I added this star burst to the design mid stride...wanted to add more stability, and I think it needed something there.



Back to the real job in the morning....bummer...I want to keep on this...nights only for a while....
