Mahalo to all.
Benz, you are too funny. I am trying to fit a lot of stuff into this, as
you pointed out. It sorta reminds me of the old Johnny Cash tune "One Piece
At A Time", about the guy that builds a car piece by piece, "It's a 55-56-57-58-
59 Automobile." It's a tlingit-tikified-png-northwoods totem pole.

Seeks, yea it's fun attempting to fill the spaces and voids with figures,
still have one spot at the bottom that needs attention, maybe tonight.

Babalu, thanks for popping in, no pics? Hope you get some soon, things are
working fine up here.

Thanks for the props on the fish Cammo. He was just gonna have a slit mouth
but the ole hook knife was just pulled in deeper and wider. Maybe under
the influence of the "ancients" :)

But still a lot of work to be done, I need to do my best sanding on this
one, and there are way too many deep corners that need my attention. I
was hoping to get it finished by the 4th of July so I could get it into the
fancy schmancy tourist store that I mentioned ealier. I'm not even going
to be close, but I think I need to keep it for a while anyway.

Happy carving to all.

edit--p.s. to Ben--It's not cold up here anymore, temps have been in the
80s and 90s, less rain and wind, hey it's summer. Cold and shitty weather
will probably return in about four weeks.
