Happy New Year 2021! I hope that you and those you love are remaining safe and well. My wife and I have been blessed to remain so and we are very hopeful about the vaccine. It is a bit of a delivery nightmare and I thank God I am not responsible for all that – I can only imagine the hurdles. But I am confident it will get sorted out. One thing I have learned over my many years is that while large organizations might have problems, there are numerous “little people” in the mix who are proud of their work and determined to get the job done. I have confidence those people will do their very best behind the scenes to get this delivery better organized.
This past year has been a terrible one in so many ways. We have not been immune from the heartache. But we also have had many blessings. My wife and I are enjoying time together and away from the “show circuit”. I have enjoyed working in my garden and tending to all those home repair and improvement activities I have had to neglect in the past. We miss our friends, going to church in person, and our son and daughter-in-law. We have had friends and acquaintances have to deal with Covid. We have friends who have suffered with other health concerns that had to take a back seat while hospitals are overrun and overburdened. But we remain hopeful that 2021 will bring relief on many fronts.
God bless you and I look forward to seeing you “on the trail” later this year or next, God willing.
Hey C.J. It’s good to know you’re doing well. Can’t wait to see your new work and catch up. I’ve been working with pen more these days and it feels good. Hope to see you this May in Tulsa.

I won’t be at the Tulsa show. Hoping to be at shows later in the year. Just need the pandemic to be a bit more under control before we venture out. Enjoyed looking at your website gallery. See you on the trail! Stay safe!
