“Never Too Old to Put it Out” Carving

"Never Too Old to Put it Out" Carving - C-62

“If I Don’t Take Care of the Parks, Who Will?” Carving

C-61

Rangers are the thin green line in protecting our national parks and most of the time don’t get the help they need from either the politicians or the public. These days, with decreased budgets and less staff protecting our parks, they need greater attention from us all!

“Kids Forever” Carving

“Kids Forever” Carving

This carving is from one piece of wood which made it more difficult. Hopefully it captures a little bit of the fun of childhood, and their lack of interest in growing up!
