Our Little House in the Snow
My 'Junior Associate', a.k.a. Junior, had his first encounter with snow this month. Initially, he didn't like the cold white stuff but he got used to it and still found lots of mice and voles.
HULA SISTAH
She wasn't able to hula that day because
of all of the snow!

FISH STICKS
Tom had fun making some cool gifts for friends this year. A drummer friend received FISH STICKS, a big steel trout with hickory drum sticks to hold his, and his wife's, fly fishing waders, vests and hats.
KATY, THE SWEET ADELINE and
FRITO BANDITO

Another friend wanted Tom to make something for his wife who used to sing in 'Sweet Adelines'. Tom made
KATY, THE SWEET ADELINE as well as a likeness of her husband Rob who plays bass guitar.
On Christmas Eve, Tom and Margaret joined friends up the valley for their annual "The Night Tree" celebration. Tom's LEICA MAN was all dressed up for the holiday.

ASIAN TRELLIS
Tom's trellis in our backyard glows in the snow because of Jess Caudill's fused glass.
Tom made Margaret a steel necklace rack for Christmas and Santa gave her lots of books but
Santa gave us the best gift of all...albacore tuna!
In the afternoon, I like to sleep on the sofa.
Sometimes Junior comes to sleep next to me.
On Christmas Day I let him stay.
