Fantastic Wood Find

IMG_0619.jpg

In our most recent adventure we found some great reclaimed wood. Hidden among the stacks of lumber was some old Wormy Chestnut. The great Chestnut blight of the 1920's killed off all the American chestnut trees that populated our Northern Forests. Under the weathered gray exterior  that you see in this picture is some beautiful  wood. The warm brown color of this chestneut is highly prized. It would make someone an unbelievable dining or conference table. Just couldn't resist sharing.
