Tee Tee Man

I know I have blogged about Cindy, the incredible shelves and her making me clean my room and other stories. I know I have mentioned Rob in connection with Cindy. He is her husband. I used to be his "second wife", but he up and left me for "the perfect job" in San Marcos, so, since there is common law marriage, I am saying we have had a common law divorce.

Anyway............

Rob, does some amazing carvings. He has been at it for quite a few years now, and I am probably his biggest fan (well, after wife # 1, Cindy). He has blessed me with several of his works, including a key chain and some walking sticks and a man-face that I have on my front porch.



The walking sticks usually have a man, or several men's faces carved somewhere on them. Rob uses the natural knots and such to make the nose, etc. He says each one has a personality that he brings out. My photos do not do the carving justice and for that I apologize to Rob!





The latest gift is more than amazing. He took an old tree trunk, and using a chain saw he carved a "Tiki" man. (Cindy had a similar one at her house here in Waller, and I always coveted it, threatening to steal it). Not only did he carve it, he also brought it all the way from San Marcus and delivered it to my house!

Mia was here visiting when Rob and Cindy came, and she saw us unload it and set it on my drive, and heard us talk about the Tiki man.

Now every time Mia sees this carving sitting on my drive way she asks "Why did Rob give you a tee tee man?"
