    Default A little about duck decoys...

    Pebbles and I got a chance to see the workshop of a pretty intense woodworker the other day. He's so talented he has a 1 year waiting-list for his decoys.

    They're mostly works of art, I can't imagine people using them in the back bays. Just wanted to share the extent of dedication some people have to their craft.
