The San Marcos River is spring-fed and originates in the Texas hill country region. That spot is about a mile from my house. Paradise? It’s not Tahiti but I like living here. There are only a couple of drawbacks that I can think of. It’s a 2to 3 hour drive to the beach and there are no tiki bars. The spot pictured below is about 2 miles from my house. The Moai photo I posted on page 2 was taken at this spot.

I don't know Grand Poobah, that sounds like more fuzzy math to me! :)

Will - The weather has been mild so far this winter and I guess I average about 10 hrs/week right now. I like to have about half a dozen carvings in different levels of completion at any one time. That puts me within striking distance on a couple at any time. I had a week off at Christmas and that's what made the difference. The last two have depleted my WIP so I guess it's time to rough out another one. Maybe I'll do another Moai.

Benz- The Ku headress on the last several have been an exercise in patience for me. I tend to rush through carving just to have something to put on the shelf at the end of the day. I'm getting better about slowing myself down. Thanks for stopping.
