June's House
 |
| tiny house carving by Connie H. May 2018 |
Connie (Far Side of Fifty) has a snow stick contest every year where her blog readers guess when all the snow in her Minnesota yard is completely melted at the Snow Stick. This year, she added a contest to guess when a large pile of snow (plowed from her driveway) she named June would disappear completely. My guess was April 27, 2018.
June disappeared on the 186th day of winter - April 30, 2018. Since my guess was the closest to that date, I won the contest, and I received a bark carving by Connie.
Connie and her husband (Far Guy) have been carving for several years and create beautiful hand-carved Christmas ornaments for multiple family members and friends each year. They design and create the ornaments throughout the year, and Connie adds a bit of paint to enhance the details. Connie and Far Guy also teach others the craft. You can read about their carving and classes here.
