Ever do any whittling? Ever heard of Diamond Willow? Made a walking stick?
Spent most of the day whittling on my walking stick. Just like grandpa, with a pocket knife, but I live in the Ozarks instead of the Rockies.
My cousin out in Montana gave my Dad a beautiful Diamond Willow cane a few years ago.
Last summer when I visited Montana he gave me the stick on the right still with bark on it.
I spent a few hours on the second from right today.
Fun times.
