We lose so many natural and man made wonders because of war, It's a shame.
Bin laden probably lives there. It will get bombed at some point!
Very interesting! Where is this location?
Awesome work!
Towels and stuff,Thats all.
Great stuff, but you need to remember to keep your knees out of the wet mix when you're leaning in to carve back in the deep holes! In all seriousness, though, does that recess serve as a seat, or what?
Authentic Environments is in the business of replication and creating imitation worlds of nature, this includes structures that have been built, carved and painted to simulate the look of collapse and decay. Our main focus is to create an ambiance, if you will, out of building products.
My name is Richard L. Winget. Here is a little more about me.

- Hi Richard. We have been working but not very busy. Dale is back to work. His leg is still sore but he can work pretty much. We did a job for Scott Metzger's friend in Murrieta. It came out very good. Hope to see you soon.

- A funny story about the tree. When I was coming home from Las Vegas with the tree in the back of the truck as we passed thru the agricultural check point we were stopped. The security there thought we had cut down a tree in the desert and were bringing it home! After they saw the metal base plate they let us go, it was funny!

- I am thrilled to go to the world of concrete show and participate in the artistry in concrete program. I will be simulating a dead tree with a old kerosene lamp hanging from one of the branches that I have converted to electric, The on/off switch will be hidden in one of the knotholes. If you are at the show please come by and say hello!
Respectfully
