Why?

Headed out this morning and noticed two Sheriff's vehicles next door. Just thought the owner might have evicted his tenants like he had talked about one day.
Came home this evening to find out that the tenants heard the owners dog barking in the barn, which is where he and his dog where lived They talked to another neighbor and decided to break a window to get to her. When they did, they discovered the owner, my neighbor, had hung himself.
I am in shock...don't know how I feel really. He was a sweet man who was just trying to get along in life.
I'll miss him.

Love Bus

I donated two 6x6 pieces to Oregon Crafted's fundraiser for their new studio in town. They have others in Oregon, this is in Eugene, anyway, I went in to look at all the donated pieces and found out that mine sold already!
So cool and fun.
