Pretty stuff Mike. If I didn't already have a few pieces from that other board still, I'd certainly go for some of this. :cool:

Joe, I am over run with the stuff- it is one of the things on a Scifi movie- the GOO that takes over. I have got to get rid of some of it. I sell 2 boards and get 4 more. If you had ever been in this part of the country you would see what I mean- but I guess it is not a bad thing to have too much of.............:yipee::yipee::yipee:
 
That crotch piece is soooo tempting, but I've still got a large figured blank from you that I haven't turned yet. You've not only got a lot of walnut, but you've got a bunch of big, beautiful boards!

Rbaccus, Thanks, Do you want me to ship like it is or? Pm me your zip so I can get freight figured out? I was hoping someone would make this one into platter.
 
Excellent! I've been thinking about that piece, and now I can stop thinking about that piece... Saved by the old forester!

I envy you living out there. i was once a pro. beach bum--water skier--surfer. if i was to make 1 trip out there, where should we go. we like the backroads--no neon lights probably like you.
You would like Kaua'i. It is the most rural of the islands(except for Moloka'i). Lot of places to walk. Of course some of the trails are dangerous, but that is what makes life interesting.

In the wintertime the surf can get up to 60 ft on the outer reefs. Fun surf is in the double to triple overhead range. Sometimes a little bigger. I have taken some pretty hard poundings over the years. The worse is when I wipe out and held under for a minute and when I finally make back to the surface there is another wave dropping on my head.

The golf is pretty decent. There are about 8 golf courses within an hour of where I live. I live on the north shore and it can get pretty wet. I hate rain and I move to one of the wettest spots on the island.

No neon lights that I am aware of. To get to the big city of Lihue, I have to wait on several lights. The traffic can get pretty gnarly at times because the main highway is 2 lanes. In fact there are no multi lane highways.

Sorry Mike about the hijack. I figured the deal is done.

"I thought you guys had only ponderosa, sagebrush and hippies out there." Lots of P Pine, sagebrush and wheat to the west and the selkirk Mts. to the east. The hippies- most of us that survived our youthful craziness are now crabby ol short haired grandpa's. David-Hijack?? I am here to have fun and communicate-you the same- I will never be upset with hijack-in fact thanks for the island lesson!!!

Thanks Dave--my bride and i are both foresters and into plants and trees as well as wood. sounds like our kinda place. we made Costa Rica 2 years ago and really enjoyed that.:drinks:

I totally agree with David.................Kauai is the only island of Hawaii that I would consider visiting any more although the northern Big Island is pretty cool.

Look forward to seeing you. Love the quote,"I can resist anything but temptation" On another note, how long have you been "fighting" with the same woman(bride)?
