“Wood, if you stop to think of it, has been man’s best friend in the world. It held him in his cradle, went to war as the gunstock in his hand, was the frame of the bed he came to rejoicing, the log upon his hearth when he was cold, and will make him his last long home. It was the murmuring bough above his childhood play, and the roof over the first house he called his own. It is the page he is reading at this moment; it is the forest where he seeks sanctuary from a stony world.”
~Donald Culross Peattie, “American Heartwood”~

Thanks so much for commenting on my photo of the woodworker in his shop. We took this last May in Torrey, Utah, a tiny village. We saw a light in the darkness, and it was his shop, so we went in and visited. He let me take his photo. Today I got the idea to make this into a poster and send it to him, but I did not know his name or address. I went onto google earth and found the building and its address. Then I made a poster through Walgreens, and it's already made! I'm easily impressed.
