Ghost of Christmas Past

Well!  I finally finished that damn darn trunk.  For a first attempt at that sort of creation, it turned out OK.  I made mistakes here and there, but I learned from them.  I had to undo and redo on an overdue project.  In the end it is larger than I thought, but it is a stout, secure trunk.  One you can sit on, if you so desired.  I think the next one will be about half that size.  It is the 2012 Christmas present for Charles and Aubrey Lamb (my son and new daughter).  Oddly enough, I finished it on their one year anniversary, February 17.  Hooray for them!  Below are the final pics.
