I don't know your house/needs but the first thing that popped into my mind was a window seat of sorts. Let us see what you do with it.
What free wood did you find today?

Nice headboards. Maybe make them into benches or gliders or Adirondack chairs for the outside.
I see some HUGE charcuterie boards…….
Got this piece along with a 7+ footer and a knotty 5 foot piece that had been cut down at a local church. Soft maple, 28” across by 16” tall. Soft maple.
Congrats! Planning to make lumber from the logs?
Well, well, well. Look what I found today….unfortunately I have to climb up and down this shady ladder barely held into a crumbly cliff face to get it. Wish me luck! Definitely a beautiful location.
That's is a beautiful view!
Wood you look at that.....great find. What is the sea of green on the landscape? Looks similar to rhododendron.
I’m not really sure what it is. It flowers a bit at certain times of year, but definitely isn’t a woody plant…now I want to know what it is.
JACKPOT!!! It’s going to take considerable time to retrieve all of that wood on that precarious ladder!
Wonder if you could use plant ID ap on your phone.
Hi @Byron Barker What a beautiful view indeed! Absolutely breathtaking!
What you do for the Wood Barter family………. Enjoy the day and view. We did as much as we could.
Nice! I bet you find at least one flip flop down there and it'll be the right one. It's always the right one. I don't know why that is but it's always the right one.

Forgive me, I did it again. I've been working on some cherry logs out of the wood pile for firewood. Went to split them yesterday and the splitter had a heck of a time with some of them. Stalled out often. Mind you, my splitter is old and may not be working at 100%. But these rounds that were difficult were the most convoluted, interlocking grain I've seen in cherry. Once opened, it looked like it was curly. The logs were nondescript with branching, so I didn't move these to my 'lumber' pile slated for the sawmill. I wish I could tell from the outside of a cherry log whether it was curly or not. And there's not enough time to check a log. It's got to be sawn into firewood or it gets pushed into the fire. I did save a few of the suspect rounds to open and see if it's curly. Pics will come when I do so.
Some incredibly weird and dense pine I’m slowly hauling off the beach. Lovely stuff, but boy is it heavy and difficult to cut
