I can still see...and drool over the wood that was brought out of storage to make that set. For years, the people in the lumber area were instructed to set aside the best lumber for the owner...and there were pallet after pallet of the most pristine redwood imaginable...in fact, if not for the amount of redwood that company purchased there'd still BE real redwood in the market. Yes, there's redwood...but a lot of it isn't even..red anymore because a redwood tree only gets its color after a certain age, and only the heartwood (center)...where the wood is harder as well. You'll NEVER find 12 foot 4x4s without a single knot anymore. That entire set was made with that kind of lumber.

So I'm glad that set will continue to get used by deserving kids.

Of all the things I've lost over the years, I think I miss my metabolism most of all.

I'm not adding this year to my age because I really didn't use it.
Ever notice that extra fries and exercise sound a lot alike?
