Welcome to LumberJocks, Kaleo. It's good to have someone else from Ozz here. Although you don't say as much, I gather that mainland USA is not your original home. Your name sounds Hawaiian. I notice that you have islands stenciled on the door of your tool cabinet as shown in your blog. I've often thought that all places on earth are islands, but that is certainly true of Tasmania and mainland Australia. I agree with you when you state that New Zealand's south island is one of the most beautiful places on earth.
How did the exhibition of your spectacular hall table go?
