Hanging Together

These are the ornaments I carved and painted. National Wood Carvers Association will be giving the ornaments they receive from many carving clubs to Children’s Hospitals or Care Centers. I am a member of the Wilderness Center Carving Club in Wilmot, OH.

Santa is Welcome Here

Still some hints of Christmas amidst this new snowfall.

Merry Christmas

And a Happy New Year!

I love this Christmas Party pic!

In Memory

Being encouraged by a good friend to post my photos, I decided it was time to put up this post. Martha Yoder, my wife’s sister passed away on December 3, 2024. She was 73 years old, after a 1.5 year battle with cancer. Martha loved angels, so my wife wanted me to carve an angel in memory of her that we could include with our Christmas decorations. I ended up, carving three angels, and finished them with three different finishes. We are missing Martha during this season.

Merry Christmas

The first photos are from a trip to Texas and hiking a trail near Corning, NY. The last photo was a part of a Christmas display!

Christmas Decor

More displays by the Spring Walk Farm in Big Prairie put on by the Wechtel families.

This was a part of a Storyland Christmas display, one of many we saw at this location, set up by the Wachtel families in Big Prairie, Ohio.!

This was my Christmas Eve activity, in between taxi runs!

Merry Christmas

I couldn’t resist sending this photo to our brother-in-law for Christmas! Of course I had sone somee photoshopping, to get the cardinal onto the binoculars (And not a good job of it). Hoping you all have a great Christmas Day!
