DAVID CALVO SHARES A GREAT STORY!

CALVO WOOD CARVING SCHOOL

 

DAVID WRITES, Over the years I have taught wood carving to many folks from all over the United States.  They have also come down from Canada as well as up from Mexico. This week I had the good fortune to have a student from South Korea. Jae Sun Chu who just retired as an engineer for a ship building company with 50,000 employees spent the week with us. He now wants to dedicate his time to becoming proficient in wood carving and traveled on a 18 hour flight to get to our Gloucester and my teaching studio. It was a week of very interesting conversations, exchanging info on current events as well as cultural interests and differences from different points of view. While he was carving, his wife was a tourist visiting all the hot spots on Cape Ann. Jae Sun is pictured below on the right along with Gloria, another student from New York.  He leaves for his homeland tomorrow and his next stop is a workshop with a carver from Thailand in November.

Warm regards,
David

Good Morning Gloucester FOB and Korean War veteran Dave Moore forwarded all these photos. Dave grew up in Lanesville and lives with his wife Kim at the Osan Air Base in South Korea.

Dave thought fellow Korean War veterans would be interested in snapshots of Korea today. I believe Dave was in the Air Force and perhaps he can tell us more about his service. Thanks Dave for sharing the photos.
