More on the wooden bowl!


While sorting old photos - a never-ending task I fear - found this shot of Ara in the wooden bowl.
 

And a photo of our friend Raymond Jonas, the artist who sculpted the wooden bowl - back in our BYU days actually!!

And I understand he is still sculpting in wood - he lives in Arizona now.

The wooden bowl




The wooden bowl has been part of the Terrill household since the very beginning.  Our friend Raymond Jonas carved it and gave it to us.  It's generally been used to hold newspapers.  I think at first we tried to keep it as a piece of sculpture, but newspapers always found their way there.

We had an obnoxious cat that we had to banish to the out of doors because he was convinced the wooden bowl should be his litter box!

Every Terrill child and grandchild has sat in it.  I have not managed to get a photo of everyone of them sitting in it though.

I will try to do better.  For now, Hannah, Ara, and Rhoda will be the poster girls for the charms of the wooden bowl!

If you have a photo of anyone in the wooden bowl, be sure to forward it to me!!
