Do you love big bluegill?

I went to see my Old friend Carl Hendrix Saturday and he stocked me up on some of his ties. I had to get my hands on some of those Freaks. Carl in a very generous and talented person and a true friend. Thanks Carl.

well;; by using womens nail polish they have more colors than a rainbow !! glitter in it !! makes painting a jig a lot easier and in better colors than ordinary paint !!  as for taking actual money for something I make;; just make your check out to the St. Jude children;s hospital;;; it;ll be a 3 way win !  actually I would rather just give my stuff away to people that I know will use it and have fun !!

I know John he has had me shopping for certain colors of fingernail polish before. The lady at Walmart was impressed with my choice of colors. The weather has been erratic here this week but I'll get out there soon. Jeffery He has never asked for anything in return from me either. Carl, B said she was glad ya'll enjoyed it, see if you can get her to make me one.
