Slow news day
Today was the weekly wood working session.

Huntsville Alabama has a Yahoo group called Huntsville FreeCycle. People post things they don't want and are willing to give away. People who want things can then respond and claim the free stuff.

Today a local guy posted free white oak. He owns some land with a old barn on it. The barn is mostly white oak. The outside is pretty well weather but the inside appears to be in pretty good shape. Plenty of thick stock used to create the structural members. DM and I drove past it this evening and stopped to take a look at what was available. There is some pretty good wood there. More than I could use in a long time. I will probably go get a few board feet. Not too much though. Free is free but I don't have a lot of space right now that I am willing to devote to addtional wood storage.

I drove a 1961 Chevy short wheel base step side pickup truck today. Yes I am up to no good again. I took a few pictures also. Perhaps I will post one soon.

I am taking a vacation day on Friday! A four day weekend will be righteous.
