Bad Day at the Shop
« on: July 05, 2010, 01:02:14 AM »
Grrrrrrrrr  :'( Well it was one of them days I guess. I've been working on a call for myself for about 3 months now. It was a Sassafras over Cedar with carving on both sides, with a wood burt Holly feather on top. I had done one just like it a couple of years ago and like it so much I decited to do another. I've been keeping a record of pics of it as I went, from start to finish. My sister and her hubby were over visiting. Me and her hubby were outside drinking a cold one, and he asked how the call was coming along. So I went into the shop and grabbed it and the camera to get more pics. We were out by the front steps takinng pics when the phone rang, sister yelled out that it was for me. I set the camera down on the steps and went in the back door to see who it was on the phone. To make a long story short, my sister took a plate of food out to her hubby in the front yard. Before he could open his mouth she went out the front door and down the steps. You guessed it  :'(. That's all I'm going to say about that.

Here are the last pics of what it used to look like, so now I guess I'll start back over, AGAIN  >:(. It's my fault for leaving it there, just didn't expect her to go out the front door.  :(. At least she missed the camera.
