Not sure why I wanted one, maybe it is my love of the sea and all things nautical, or maybe I was in a folk artsy mood, or it could be my New Bedford family roots.
But the way I see it, if I want a whale for our front porch, I will have a whale for our front porch.
Yesterday while working on interior trim, and pushing myself in some extremely uncomfortable heat and humidity to finish the new playroom for the kids, I could not stop thinking how nice a whale would look on our porch.
I took a quick look online and immediately knew that there is no way I was going to spend $150 on a whale for our porch, not if I want to continue sleeping in the house.
Because I could not get this whale thing out of my head, I took a break from doing interior trim work and found my self a board and carved out my whale, so now I can officially say I have a whale on our front porch.
Now its back to trim work and painting, and I will do my best to ignore the vision I have of a six foot long wooden dragonfly with a Partridge Family bus color theme.
