Home from Ocean City safe and sound

Di and I had a ball in OC and it was nice to enjoy the show for once and not have to work. So much to see and do and so many crab cakes to sample. It was a real honor to judge the World Rigs this year and share the barge with some great carvers. It was really great to get together with old friends after being away from the World show for 4 years. Di and I had lunch with Cigar Daisy and it was great to reminisce about past world shows and all the things that he has purchased that are still in a box in his closet........an Airbrush comes to mind among many others. World Show....incredible carvings..........

Willy,

That looks like a great time. Who won?

Hope you are back in Paducah this fall as I will actually get to be a part of the class this time.

Been going to the Worlds for almost 30 years, great place. Never entered a bird in all those years. Enjoy the people and the show. Entries getting a little thin.

Sorry I do not have any closeups.......BOS winner was Tom Flemming with the Cans.
