A cowboy boot.
Boot #1 is dedicated to my good friend Seth.  You will find him on many of the parks I have visited.  He accepted a position with our company in Oklahoma City and now resides in the Sooner State.  This is the first one of my carvings that I have ever given away. 
I could not think of a better person to receive it.

I wish him well and he will be missed.
Always start with a rough out when possible.
A work in progress.
