A FRIEND To LEAN ON

Back a few weeks ago I was walking along a very old path that meandered through the woods high above the Grand River.
I happened on a small branch, or stick that had died and fallen onto the path. It had once been attached to very stately black Walnut Tree.
Bending over, I picked it up just to clear the path so that some not so vigilant passerby wouldn't inadvertently trip over it and possibly scramble their cognitive resources against said tree of very dense Walnut.
As I walked along holding the branch, I realized that I was using it as a staff.
Well I guess that you have guessed where the story goes from there.
It wasn't many days afterwards billytwohearts had a new walking stick.
I carved a face, named it WALLY, fancied it up a bit. I'm not quite finished but there's no hurry, Wally isn't complaining.
At least I havn't heard any complaints.

Yep, the only problem is, it adds up more stuff less room :) ...............billytwohearts

It's really lovely! Of course you don't hear anything! You're smothering him when you walk! Hahah I love seeing your carvings. Thanks for sharing!

Thank you for the kind words, and Wally said something, sort of muffled though. ;)

Hehe oh Wally! You sly sly guy! ;) hahah

You are definitely an interesting individual my friend.
