| Re: Olive Branch Thanks Cliff, yes that particular stick came right out of my back yard in a wet damp part . It was a supprise to me to find it because I was'nt expecting to see it there, just happened to see it when I was cutting the grass.It dos'nt seem to have the amount of diamonds that a stick from a colder climate has . I cut about twenty sticks and right now they are drying In My workshop/garage. Now that we are wintering in Arizona I usually by ten or fifteen sticks that some carvers bring down from Alaska , that is if they can get them across the border . U.S. customs seem to be coming up with some pretty feeble rules at the present time. I got pulled over so they could inspect the bass wood &dog food I had on board (it might have been made in Canada and contained mad cow disease). If you can wait till spring and want to take a trip to Owen Sound , I will bring you back a couple of nice sticks that I can pick up here.They usually run from ten to fifteen bucks apiece.
