Driving to work every morning has always been kinda boring and now that we have so much construction going on, it's really slow. But now I have more time to enjoy the chainsaw art along the way.

A little background: So many live oaks along the beach died during Hurricane Katrina. Rather than remove all of the trees, the City of Biloxi hired chainsaw artists to come and transform the dead tree stumps into works of sculpture art. It really is amazing to think one has this much skill with a chainsaw.

I think they are really cool and I thought I'd share. I can't find a pic of my two favorites, so I'll try to go take them myself eventually. :)

Enjoy this little break from Medic Acheivement discussions. :)

Now THAT is impressive! It's always nice to see something different done with storm damage, rather than just bulldoze and remove. Good on whoever made that decision!

You try to scream but terror takes the sound before you make it!
You start to freeze as horror looks you right between the eyes, you're paralyzed...
Cause this is THRILLAH, thrillah night
And no one's gonna save you from the beast about strike
You know it's thrillah, thrillah night
You're fighting for your life inside a killer, thriller tonIIIIIIIiiiiiiiight!!!

I just felt like doing that.

...you're welcome.

I can't begin to describe how offensive that was to my psyche. Because of that, you must all watch this:

I have no words for you.
 
These are pretty cool Purple! The one with the Condors (or seagulls?) is simply amazing!
 
Those are pretty good! I know a guy that makes bears out of tree stumps. If you like those, google watermelon art.
