I came home from work today to find a priority box from Marty Eargle waiting for me on the porch!
What a very nice surprise! I couldn't wait to open it up!
Inside I found blanks of Sycamore, Cedar, Mimosa and Big Leaf Maple. They're all very nice, and I can't wait to dig into the BLM, it looks to have some nice figure.
I also found, carefully wrapped up, a beautiful birdhouse ornament!

Thank you Marty! You made my day!

I turned some mimosa/silk tree recently, and found out I am allergic to it. Be careful.
