Chainsaw Carvings in Hope, BC
A week ago I took a mini-vacation to Hope, BC. It is only about an hour and forty-five minute drive from Mom's place in Bellingham. That makes it an excellent destination for me. Years ago, Wayne and I landed at the Hope Airpark to camp after attending the Abbotsford Airshow. This trip was a solo getaway by car.

Hope boasts that it is the Chainsaw Carving Capital of the World. That must be true. Everywhere around town you'll find fabulous sculptures.

I plan to return when skies are sunny to get some even better shots. -- Margy

ReplyDeleteYes Fran, it is amazing that such a large tool can do such intricate work. I was sad to hear the contest was cancelled for this year. I would have liked to attend.
