THEME DAY--WOOD--A few of my favorite friends

Meet just a few of my favorite 'homies,' whom I've adopted over the years, and they're all made out of wood. You probably recognize Radovan, the little guy to the right of the turtle, who accompanies me when I travel. Around him is a selection of figures from Russia, Poland, the USA, Serbia, India, and in the turtle's case (it was purchased on the flea market), I think Indonesia.

Come back to visit me tomorrow...it's my birthday...

Nice collection of wooden objects. Who's the naked dude? I like the owl. And of course Radovan.

What a great group! They are all interesting and I'm sure have a special meaning to you! Great theme post!

So, I understand you'll be 39 tomorrow! Congratulations! I'll be back to help you celebrate...

I knew I would find something wonderful here, Bibi. I'm going to have to find my "Radovan", or rather, it's going to find me.

Hi, all! Marianne, the 'naked' dude is a Serbian 'model' I picked up downtown...look closely and you'll see he has a belly button....

What a beautiful mixed bag of precious things. A lovely choice for today. I bet you had fun arranging these for the shot which has worked so well. I'll be back tomorrow!
