    funny i went in yesterday to take this picture and was stopped by a guy and got a personal invitation to come tomorrow (friday) to join and talk about scrolling to local carving group that meets there. i have been wanting to go to the group but my wife is off on fridays so we use that day as our date day (30 years of marriage) we go to doctors take care of out of town shopping in the big city (houston to get wood) and such then usually movie and dinner date. thanks for all the kind comments, i am hoping to find a local guy that gets the bug like i did years ago so i have a local fellow scroller
