"Cam; I'm down for Mission:"Tiki Island take over" Take some rafts over, chop, and stake up a tiki."

That had crossed my mind -

So today, Cammo set out on the high pacific seas in search of treasures and adventures of unimaginable scope. Luckily, I was able to document his journey from my work area with my telescope and x2.0 camera lens.

Here, we can see Cammo on the shore in the white shirt, just getting ready to shove off:

Having rated the vessel worthy for safe sea passage, Cammo leaves the land, and its securities, behind:

With mother nature and king neptune on his side, Cammo is granted quick passage through the often times challenging channel:

The wide open sea confronts him, as it seems to roll on forever before him, leaving no mark to show his progress or position

Finally, after all the time and the struggles of being out at sea, the cry rings out: "Land Ho!"

Cammo enters the channel

After disappearing on the far side of the lagoon, Cammo emerges on the summit of the atoll:

Cammo on the island, with the roller coaster in the background:

Let's all hope Cammo makes it back safely.

Hey Duddy! I can't wait to get that new guy stood up so I can really see him. I still haven't mananged to do it myself. Maybe Wednesday when I have a couple carving buddies over.
As for the sunsets, it's all trick photography. Here's yesterdays sunset without using photoshop:

Speaking of carving buddies, Babalu had me over yesterday afternoon to do some glazing. here we see Babalu working on his monster bowl:

Here's a little pile of stuff I glazed while I was there:

Firing tomorrow, so i need to go finish another mug and a few pendants tonight. Tick tock...

Pace yerself, avoid the burnout!

He's going to be a little bit less ornate than that other one. Different styled guy too. More liney than triangly...
