Today I shared part of the day with my son Terry....Terry is a man of many talents. He is a
professional artist whose medium is gun engraving, (and an occasional piece of jewelry for Mom).
http://www.pbase.com/petesie/image/36301051 He has studied with master engravers in Germany.
He is also building his own home...see it here http://www.pbase.com/petesie/terrys_house
Three years ago he started playing the accordion and loves it.
He now spends Saturday afternoons entertaining the tourists in Fredericksburg.
As you can see, one gentleman started dancing, and the lady on the left is about to put some money in his tip jar. What a fun time I had!

Below you can see some of the hand engraving Terry did on his accordion.

Petesie... I saw this photo yesterday long before I got your pmail and could have sworn I commented on it but lookie here my comment is nowhere to be found. I love this shot of my pony boy. He looks fantastic and the scene is perfect. That engraving is awesome. You're the best, Petesie. No wonder you have such a fine family.

What a awesome shot Petesie. I always love to watch the interaction in this type of street entertainment. Terry looks like he has a great time doing this. Glad you were able to join him. BTW Fredericksburg is on my list of favorite places! GMV
