    Another whimsical whimsy. Or Whimsey? Spelled both ways but referring to a tramp art-ish form of carving. Too much time on their hands? Well, they had no TV or Internet. What better to do while listening to the radio?
    A highly skilled artisan, that's for sure. This piece, which also allows the man to circle all the way around, was carved from one piece of wood.
