Quote

“I expect to pass through this world but once,
Any good, therefore, that I can do,
Or any kindness that I can show any fellow creature,
Let me do it now, let me not defer it, nor neglect it,
For I shall not pass this way again.”

Carving for Auction

Miracles Happen

Mick has carved a stunning piece of pounamu which went up for auction on Trademe to help raise funds for this project. The auction closed at 9am Friday and it didn't sell. I was really disappointed, but decided not to relist it until after the weekend. But then, out of the blue, at 2pm someone rang and said they heard Mick had a carving for sale could they buy it for exactly the amount Mick wanted for it. And so the final bills get paid.
