when i was in seattle just starting this trip down to the superhero bicycle ride i helped my dad do some pruning of the huge blue spruce tree in the back yard of the house i grew up in. i took a few pieces to carve into spoons. this is the first one, and was finished while i was in portland. it found a home with the superhero We Be Nesting, who was present when i arrived at the 2015 Haul of Justice.
this shows the mini bent knife from North Bay Forge that is the only tool i brought with me on this trip. it is enough to carve the whole spoon.
