Welcome to our New Family Members

We have two new family members, named Dexter and Sinister.  We saw a them as concrete statues on the Isle of Arran (Scotland) years ago, and have searched for them ever since.  Because we had no luck, we ended up commissioning a woodcarver to create our own.

Voila!

Naturally, there is a story behind these guys, who represent warrior monks from medieval times.  

Dexter (based on Latin for "right") opposes Sinister (based on Latin for "left").

They glare suspiciously at one another and are obviously a caricature of heraldic emblems.  As it is, they make us laugh every time we see them.  The carver has done an exceptional job and we are thrilled with our most recent "Art".
