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...
Thankyou very much for the nice wood and more so the effort put forth by you and your friend . That really is some nice cedar and a full 2". Now I need a bigger swivel. Sorry I didnt get to say thanks in person but it is appreciated

Thanks again for the wood. I've got it drying in my shed. It has a great smell to it....
If you do it again next year maybe we could just do some type of anouncement that you are there so that we could all go out at once to get it so that you wouldn't need to try and trackus all down. I know you spent a lot of time trying to find each of us..
Dn'Jn'...That's just what I'm going to do....Only no orders...just fill the friggin' truck with whatever I can and let you know when I arrive. I'll stay with the truck for no more than 1/2 hour...lock it up and enjoy the day. Cripes I never got to flash the old hoin' skilllzzz...but I see were some guys did quite well...That's OK I got some of my plugs out to some of the kids!
