Title: Road Trip!
Post by: GrayBeard on January 14, 2011, 02:50:23 pm

Tomorrow I am making a trip to Eolia, MO to take a look at the wood store there.

I have bought a couple pieces of hardwood from them and was pleased.
(Hoping to get them to contact Steve and maybe work a deal for us!!!)

Since Sloan's is not handling hardwoods anymore I thought it would be nice to have a supplier here in the 'heartland'!

Report to follow! Will include pics if they will let me take them!!!

I love road trips GB. Especially to a wood store or a woodworking store! Have fun at the candy store!

Quite a store, GB.  I watched the video and was impressed with all they stock there.  Smart of you to check their hours before you shoved off on your trip!
