Default Early birthday present

My wife wanted to go to Moose Jaw this last weekend. Middle of hunting season and you want to go to Moose Jaw... why? So she spilled the beans. She had asked my brother-in-law to make a nice birthday present for me; he carves antlers. It is very early, my birthday is in August. Here it is hanging in our living room.

Nice. Could be just a little "thank you" from a loving wife.

I like it. Especially leaving half natural like he did.
Sounds like your wife is a "Keeper"

I agree, very nice indeed! Your brother-in-law has some talent and you're lucky to have a wife like that!

You are very lucky.

I hope there is not a Msr. Squirrel in the log pile.

Have a good trip.
