Ok gents...Here's what I have in the truck (red Z71 Siverado crew cab)...
19 bundles @$15.00 each...clear
11 bundles @ I think you're gonna like this..$8.00 each, it's trimmed wood and there are 15 sticks per bundle...this is what I use because it's cheap and I can squeeze lots of plugs out of it.

I also have about 7 or 8 Cypress planks...They look like 2 X 6 in X varying lengths...prices as marked...

This is what the mill owner told me:

"I cut this out of logs that were between 1 year and 18 months old. I will still require some drying, but inside out of the weather and cut to size it should be OK to use in a couple of weeks...Hmmm...where did I here that before.

With what I have I can work down the list to Togue if he'll take only 7 bundles. I might have enough cypress down to BIGRED.

If I can't get to you in this load he said for me to see what else you gents want and he'll do his best to get it cut. Like I've said in the past...his main business is specialty high end shingles and building/repair season is approaching rapidly so plug wood is not a priority. He cuts this stuff only because I bug him and even though he had to move his mill he still lives near me and doesn't want to hear me whine...LMAO...
