Hi All,

 

I live in North Liberty, Iowa.  Iowa has 2 seasons.  Winter and road construction.  Served my country more years ago than I will admit to.  Lovely, Sweet Wife & I are married 52 years & have 4 sons.

 

Do wood carving in the kitchen during the winter & scroll in the unheated garage during the summer.  Donate almost everything to a Ministry group at our Church.  They dole them out to people they call on that are going through tough times in their lives.

 

Am cursed with a sense of humor that doesn't quit.

I too wish to welcome you to The Village. I too have been with my bride for over 50 years. The Village is a huge family that is located all over the world, and we always are most welcoming of new family members. There is a lot of talent here, some cutters, some pattern makers as well. We love anything to do with woodworking and if you have any photos of your carvings we are all interested in seeing them too. I love your attitude for giving to your church to help others. I too donate things for fund raisers and to my church. I also sell a few pieces but mostly I enjoy making gifts for others. Take time to look everywhere on this site, Jerry. There is much to see and many people to meet. I hope you come back often as that is how everyone gets to know one another. Any questions or suggestions is always welcome..
