I hear ya Greg. Try an arborist in the city. Even in the urban and suburban
blight we manifest so well, there are usually trees and some of them need to
come down now and then. While some of the arborists sell wood, most have a
disposal problem and will sell it cheaply or give it away. Sometimes a bowl
or two can be exchanged for a lot of wood. Worth looking into and can't
hurt.

Thanks, Darrell. I know the routine, but I live amidst the blight of
a large southern city. It's 20-40 miles just to get to outer
suburbia. If I invested more time into procuring stuff, I might do
better, but with gas and time being at a premium...
