Well, winter finally arrived a couple of days ago…..6 inches of snow and -2 degrees F. Not so bad, but I was getting used to the idea of skipping winter this year.
On a more pleasant note; I just celebrated my 1st year with LJ. I have enjoyed being a part of this great group of men and women, craftsmen and artists, with a common, yet diversified interest in things wooden. I have “met” so many great people in the past year and have even managed to meet a couple in person.
Thanks for everything; the encouragement, advice, counsel, and the humor, but most of all, the inspiration.

happy first year. we are just getting our first winter storm in two more days. so they say…
they (the weatherman) can’t get a storm predicted right,within a week. how can they predict climate change 20 or 40 years from now?
Have your say...
