whittle boats
do you have a favorite uncle?
I remember how my great-uncle Jerry would sit on the porch and whittle all day long.
Once he whittled me a toy boat out of a larger toy boat I had. It was almost as good as the first one, except now it had bumpy whittle marks all over it.
And no paint, because he had whittled off the paint.
Good ol’ uncle jer
NObody knows jack handey
No, but I have recently discovered I have a neice, we got on like a house on fire, and then some.
I have to inquire what the exact kinship relation is.
I think it is all above board.
Fun is fun and she certainly is, but I don’t want it to get too redneck.
