First of all thanks for listening to the show, second I’m glad I was able to point you to this great website. When Martin first contacted me last year about LJ I had a feeling it was going to be a great place for everyone to visit.

I found out about Lumberjocks from Matt’s website as well. I also learned about the Habitat ReStore on Matt’s site and donated a bunch of left over construction supplies from a remodel. Great experience donating to a worthy cause. Thanks Matt!

Well the first Wood Talk Online podcast is up and ready for some scrutiny. Both Marc and I hope you enjoy it and look forward to doing many, many more. The show can be found at both of our sites, so it’s up to you which one you want to visit.

Holy Snap! I can’t believe how long it’s been since I’ve been active. I check out the site at least once a day if not more, but apparently I haven’t done anything in awhile!

Everything is going well on this end, a little bit busier than usual that’s for sure. I’m looking forward to a long weekend coming up, I’ve got a couple of projects in the works and both my kids have B-Days too. Have we ever considered adding a couple of extra hours to the day?
