For many years I only drew pictures but these days one of my favorite things is to create three dimensional versions of my ideas. It's kinda fun to take a sculpting medium and fashion something that will hopefully bring a smile to people's faces.

Today's task was to build the cartoon vulture that sits on top of the giant cactus for the Windmill Drop ride. Hailey and Kendra mixed the sculpting epoxy for me while I jumped up on the scaffold to do my work. It took about three hours of fun to sculpt my new feathered friend.

After lunch we began work on a second bird on the Wilderness Adventure sign.
