Some what. Olive has more figuring to it. Most of the character for this one is due to the small size and there's still a touch of bark to it.
The end is near. . .

H, you did good, love that wood.
I tried my hand at turning the requested cocktail "glass" and it looks good to me, YMMV.

Wood grains have always fascinated me 
Me too. I've looked at some others turnings or other works and thought they stopped to soon or too late for the best grain pattern in the piece they did but that's just my take on grain patterns.Wood grains have always fascinated me

Well not "THE" end but I have 2 shifts remaining at work and I will be signing my termination papers and slip off into the world of RETIREMENT!!!
I was fortunate to be able to retire at age 50. 14 years ago this June. I highly recommend it.
My goal was 55 but my oldest son was accepted at Baylor and I'm still paying for that.

Congratulations! hemibee on your pending retirement, I have just joined TRIUMPH TALK, and i plan to retire in the next couple of years, jump in my RV and travel around everywhere, and ride my Triumph Trident 750 T300 till i can't ride no more! good luck! and enjoy your well earned rest!
I sold my business 2 years ago and don’t advise it at all . I now realize it was getting hard on my health but now I have 50 or so hours every week that has to be filled and that’s a lot of work . No more customers walking through the door providing free entertainment. Poor management I suppose , but a lot of people still die with their boots on .
I have retired twice, once from the military and then from Flagler County. I highly recommend it. I am just as busy now as I was when I was employed; but I am doing what I want and when I want (for the most part). Volunteer work is a a good way to fill time and help others.
Congrats! Hope you’re enjoying your retirement! My wife sure enjoys being retired, slightly jealous! LoL.

My 24 year career with a legacy airline has been a good one. We are struggling right now and trying to trim back the budget. They are offering the VSP, or Voluntary separation package to all employees, which consists of a one time lump sum equal to 1 year salary, and 1 year extended health coverage. I’m 59 years old today, and fall short of reaching Medicare age of 65. Oh well, everything happens for a reason they say! Congratulations on your retirement!
