It was raining today so I didn't get the sunset.

So, on to the tiki stuff...

After drawing on the aforementioned grid, I just maneuvered my tools between the lines and came up with a few patterns on it.

Front view:

i'll do the lines a little deeper while I'm sanding it up. It's real rough here.

Closer up, with the little tiki face on it

One side

Other side:

Kind of the same, but kind of different from the other side

Luckily, the log held up to most of the detailing I tried to carve

And the good thing is, she still hasn't ruined anything that I hadn't previously ruined myself! The only reason I post so many pictures, is because I want to widen my lead as TC's #1 photo contributer. I'm glad that my quest to remain #1 results in some enjoyment for you.

Tikimecula, Buzzy, Poki, and Babalu:

Oh yeah, I forgot to mention that House of Buzz had a special guest you all know this week: Tikimecula. He was in town and thought a day over here would be better than a fifth day in row in a hotel room. Little did he know that I would drag him to he Post Office with me, at probably one of the worst moments of post office efficiency history. It took so long we had to cancel our planned trip to Babalu's house. We wanted to go over there and steal whatever idea Bowana was working on, but that will have to wait until some other time.
I forgot to get a picture while he was here, too. Dang! As a substitute, here's me and he at Oasis:

Despite what his posture in this photo would lead you to believe, he couldn't wait to get his hands on that signed, limited edition Buzzy pinup photo.

A carving course by you and Benz would be the ultimate! Could both of you guys move to Texas? :P

How about if we just travel around together, spreading tiki carving joy across the nation. We need a carving tool sponser to loan us a big tour bus like John Madden has and we'll go around giving tiki carving classes throughout the great 48!

...only problem is I'd rather be at a Benzart carving course as a student. I took a Benzart carving class with a few lucky ducks out here a few years back and it was the greatest thing ever.

Puppy pictures time:

Poki the puppy, 60mph to...


...0 in one minute flat!

SSSSShhhhh! Don't wake up the dog. She'll start chewing on stuff again.
Buzzy Out!
