IRON MOUNTAIN -- Bill Revord, owner of the White House Tavern and Grill in Iron Mountain, is adding presidential carvings to his décor.

Revord hired Potlicker Custom Chainsaw Sculptures to create the three different masterpieces for the tavern.
    
Teddy Roosevelt and Abraham Lincoln are complete, and the last sculpture of Mount Rushmore is expected to be finished by Friday.

"For our customers to reflect a little bit about the presidency of the United States of America," said Revord on his reasoning of the decorations.

Bill plans to leave Mount Rushmore on the front lawn for display.  Teddy Roosevelt and Abraham Lincoln will be placed on the bar porch for patrons to enjoy.
