And as much as I love you shiloh, I'm going to bed. I stayed up way to late last night and need to get up early in the morning.

Good night

Nanni- Good LORD go to BED!!! LOL!!
I am a total night owl...unfortunately this does not help my bouts of insomnia. Add to this working full time and pulling a full course load in college...and the single mom...someday when I'm working graveyard delivering a baby I will think back to the late nights and dragging days at work and know that it was all worth it....

the tree limb is no longer attatched to the tree...a fallen branch if you will...leaned up against a tree in extremely tall grass...the only way I happened to find it was the sharpie was sticking up that they drilled a hole and glued the cap in to the branch. It was a really cool find...my son just couldn't believe that that was the "box" he still talks about it when we describe letterboxing to friends.
Crappy white stuff

Okay, I have a question.....

My daughter came up with an AMAZING (in my opinion) series that we will be debuting at the Lake George mini-meet this weekend, but then taking home to replant closer to us...

When we went to the store to get more carving material, they didn't have any pink stuff, only the really crumbly white speedball carving medium.... The stamps go together to make one rather large stamped image. It took hours and now I think it's gonna get ruined out in the real world after a little while....

Has anyone found anything that might toughen this material up a bit to make the carve last longer once it has been planted?

I don't think anything is going to help that stuff, but you can just put some foam on the back and hope for the best. Other than that, can't say. Kirbert may have some ideas for you in the a.m.

Maybe it was Fort Smith...We were in Hinnesville (Ft Stewart) and it was like a 4-5 hour drive and I think we went kinda straight west...I'm sure if I wasn't so lazy and went to look at a map I would figure it out...but then again I just followed the car in front of me...

Quote Zamboni: Zamboni has the distinction of being the first boxing buddy mentioned when the boxing buddy concept was announced. He’s a 6” tall, hand crocheted elephant that my son (the elephant lover) named. If you’d like to host a bit of boxing buddy history, ask for Zamboni.
