Old Wood, New Use

Old Wood, New Use Full time RV’rs & Artisans sharing functional live edge wood creations as we travel the USA. I am happy to share my thoughtful, functional creations with you.

I've been working with wood for most of my life and I love creating things for people to enjoy. From bookcases to bottle openers, cutting boards to checker boards, I love making things! I try to utilize local, reclaimed wood when possible but I also use exotic woods and local hardwoods with live edge for variety and contrast. I can custom build many of my pieces to your specifications, please ask! My wife and I moved to the Pacific Northwest 4 years ago to be near our Grandchildren. In addition to our family time, I also enjoy fly fishing, kayaking, hiking, playing the drums, and exploring the beautiful Pacific Northwest. Thank you for your interest.

We made it home in time to attend “Light The Circle Pink” an event put on by Knotty Girl a nonprofit creating awareness about early detection and self breast exams. They did a fantastic job with a car show, music, food trucks, vendors, inflatable races (I was a volunteer for this fun act!) and pink lights around downtown Sebring’s famous circle.

Vero Beach is our last stop before going “home” for the winter. Our April-October RV adventure covered 3,600 miles and included 4 new National Parks & 3 new states for our map! Fuel & repairs made this an expensive adventure and now, unfortunately JoJo will need surgery on her back leg as she blew it out in VA, poor baby! Still a great trip from the Everglades to The Great Lakes & back; time with family was the best of all!

We have utilized our Thousand Trails membership throughout our entire route this season, from Florida to Michigan and now on our way back. It’s saved us so much $$ in RV parks! Our favorites this trip were both in Ohio! Wilmington was lovely with large , gravely sites, 2 lakes for fishing, nice pool& clubhouse and friendly people. Our 2nd favorite was Kenisee Lake in Jefferson, OH. Nice, large, gravel spaces, huge green spaces, pool, clubhouse, laundry & again, the friendly people just made it a great place to stay! W**e tasting everywhere we go! **etasting

Experiencing small towns and their Farmer’s Markets is a common activity for us as we travel the USA. Buchanan, MI has some great architecture, a robust Farmer’s Market & fun, fall scarecrows promoting local businesses. Our FM haul included locally raised beef & pork (staying away from anything we don’t know where it came from!) Ended the day with the best w**es we have tried lately Hickory Creek and met some wonderful people! **e 🇺🇸

So glad Hubby & I visited this nearby State Park, it was totally worth the $12 day fee! Beautiful beach and nice 4.8 mile hike on Mt. Randall Dune, 200’ above Lake Michigan shore. We were so surprised at the flora & fauna of the trail up & down the dune and so glad we didn’t bring JoJo with her bum leg. Once at the beach, we hunted for lake/beach glass; Hubby found them all! After we found Mikey’s Drive-in with Car Hops; root b**r float was perfect! 3 new states and 4 new National Parks this spring/summer/fall!
