This was by far the best Chop ever.

I carved a tiki, despite my gimpy wrist. I finally made a ti lei. I learned how to do resin casting, and I made a couple of mugs.

Other highlights, I got to relive my past. I had jell-o shots for the first time in over ten years and had a squirt gun fight. I'd say it's been at least twenty-five years since I'd done that. (My sincerest apologies to all of the innocent bystanders who got wet.)

Babalu - Thanks so much for spending the morning teaching us how to make mugs. So much more sinks in when you're sober.

Moki - What was going on in the sky during the group shot? Great pictures. Thanks again for the pendant. It's gorgeous.

Dave - Thanks for the resin demo. The hula girl is amazing.

Clysdalle - Thanks for the chainsaw help again. Sorry about that last shot of water to your face. Thanks for not getting even with me...or is that part of your evil plan? When I least expect it, expect it. Personally, I think we're already even considering the remark you made about my feet.

Lennie - Thanks so much for breakfast and the lei lesson. It's good to find a fellow Crowdie after all these years.

Bill - Thanks again for opening your home to all of us especially since the clay added another layer of messy to the group.

Tom and Phil - Thanks for the drinks. They were fabulous.

Mieko, Diana and Bill - Thank you for putting me up for the night. (I've got to go to Costco and get that chai latte.)

Thanks to everyone who comes to this event and makes it such a great way to spend a weekend.
