Here is a piece of willow creek Courtney bought a few months ago when the saw down. I hope the others slabs have the same intensity.

Sometimes when we are generous in small, barely detectable ways, it can change someone else's life forever. - Comedian Margaret Cho.

We've got a world in which physical miracles are commonplace - and nobody's happy.  We've got what it takes to feed all the billions of us - and half of us are starving.  You can show a dozen guys murdering each other on TV, but you can't ever show two people making love.  A naked blade is rendered less obscene than a naked woman.  Isn't it about time we started trying to get a handle on love, from any and all directions? -Jake (From "Off the Wall at Callahan's" by Spider Robinson.)

Cool looking stuff. Isn't it cool the way the diferent shades show up? I mean you can tell the obvious fractures at one time with the shifting of the pattern. But on one side it's a dark color & one the other it's lighter. Makes you wonder as to the why. I love cutting rough. Each slab off the saw is a new adventure. Slabbing's like a box of chocolate - - - . LOL
