wk 27 - wood trim inside



A few years ago at one of our annual work weekends, several Friends rolled huge logs from downed trees up to the central lawn to await a sawyer. These trees died when the new septic tank was put in north of the Pitt Hall library. The sawyer came and made lumber out of the trees. We stored the lumber in the garage to "season." It's now ready for use -- you can see the beautiful butternut and cherry boards above. It is being used for the trim around the doors and windows.

The trees, planted by Wilson Powell when he first homesteaded this land in Columbia County continue to provide beauty and connection to those of us crossing the threshold of the ACC. CNS finished downstairs this week and will do the trim for the upstairs next week.
