My darling bride spotted this one. Another neighbor had a pear tree get damaged in the storm. The section of the tree I got was pretty damaged but I was able to get 4 10x10x4 (on average) bowl blanks out of it.

While at Lowes I bought some DNA so I can experiment with turning wet wood and drying it.

'Course, my darling bride also bought 5 gallons of paint, so it may be a few days at least...

Yep, yep, yep wish I could find wood like that. Nice score Gary. Sounds like some nice bowl blanks.

Turn your rough blanks and start your drying process....then break out the 5 gallons of paint. That'll keep you busy while your waiting for your roughed bowls to dry.;)

We'll see. She also said the new bathroom fixtures should be arriving today. Joy.
