Default Thanks to Don for the wood

I feel like it was a fair deal. I don't often get fruitwoods that large.
I am looking forward to getting it home.

You probably don't want to know I have a 3 cu cart full of large
apple from -this- year, plus what is left of last years. The only
thing I am really running short on is nut wood (and I have a line on
some new walnut)

How did that osage block out for you? I looked at the picture, but can't
really tell.

Well, I think I got about half a dozen bowl blanks, plus the ends
for box blanks. I was able to slice the wood along the natural splits
for much of the log.

Did you talk to Allen? He has two -LARGE- black walnuts that need
to come down, the problem is, he has to block part of the road in
front of his house to do it! (it's a four-lane main road)
