Happy Birthday Brian!!!

A tribute to my brother Brian...the person who creates tons of awesome wood-worked creations (shown below if you scroll down a bit) and countless other interesting and awesome projects. Alas, Brian has had some difficulties with his feet and has undergone some serious operations and radiation treatments...and hopefully will be able to get back on his feet someday soon (but not too soon! not until you SHOULD!).
Anyway...Hope this week is a good one for you and things are looking up. LOVE YOU!
Me...and Bailey...(and Emery upstairs asleep)!

An Exhibition of Our Family's Creative Interests

This blog is designed to display a wide range of projects, some of which (quite possibly) have an interesting story or two! Major 'players' include Bailey and Nate, as the Molokai Kids, and the rest of our family and some friends...and whomever else has a bit of cleverness in their system! No special time frame here....we've all used our hands and brains for years. Mostly.

Naturally, there will be fish stories...

Will post the fishies later...!

Apparently Daffers won't stay off the furniture. Bad Dog!

Apparently Daffers won't stay off the furniture. Bad Dog!
Not a 'true' invention, by the way! But now that I think about it, the Hawaii furniture was either a rolled-up sleeping bag, a cooler, or a slightly-damaged lawn chair that a couple beers improved if you didn't mind slouching sideways...!

Franken-Fish

In the spirit of Halloween, we are all looking forward to "Frankenfish", the Molokai kids' attempt at ocean taxidermy.
Pull that puppy out of the closet!

Err, I mean fish.

The Frankenfish

The Frankenfish
The infamous taxidermied fish, pulled from the depth of a dark closet; rather dark and mysterious, just like the ocean depths....
