Out and about

Out in the mountains of North Carolina, as you drive along the "main roads", you're liable to see most anything. This gent enjoys portraying the role of Jed Clampett, or so I presume. He uses a chain saw to carve out black bears of various sizes, then sells them to tourists who gather around to watch the performance.





I think he could also do a creditable job of playing the starring role in the movie "Deliverance".

  2. LOL We got to see someone do this near Branson in MO. Very impressive to see someone take a block of wood and make it into something. Thanks for linking up to the Field trip hop

  3. I love that! I do think he's a little scary with the chainsaw.

    Have a great week!
