Dave,

   I bit. You got me. Nice figure. Wasn't there a pair of them (Bookmarking)? Take good care of it and find a real nice way to use and display him/them.

   As teenager my dogs once chased a swamp rabbit into a hollow gum tree during a high water spell. My maternal grandfather had taught me how to twist a squirrel out of a hollow using a greenbrier or switch and I twisted out lots of squirrels, and occasional coon or possum. I also got the rabbit. Last squirrel was a year ago while training my rat terrier Sampson. Its a dying art.

I have seen my dad fuzz up the end go a stick and use it to pull a squirrel out of a tree.  Thanks for the memory!

Why am I not surprised the goat sees it looking sideways? They've always got their heads tilted to the side with that quizzical expression on their faces.

That is slick!
YellowHammerisms:

Take steps to save steps.

If it won't roll, its not a log; it's still a tree.  Sawmills cut logs, not trees.

Kiln drying wood: When the cookies are burned, they're burned, and you can't fix them.

Sawing is fun for the first couple million boards.

Be smarter than the sawdust
