Travelling east and looking for wood we don't have in Oregon and Washington to turn...

Aug 16, 2004 0 Replies

I live in the Portland, Oregon area and am traveling to Charlottesville, VA for Thanksgiving with my son and his new bride. What native wood will I find there to bring home on the plane with me? We will be in Norfolk, VA and Elizabeth City, North Carolina as well. Will visit the DC area, too. I know we will go to the Colonial Williamsburg and Jamestown settlements, maybe Mount Vernon and Monticello. Maybe Gettysburg. Any tips on wood I should look for or stores other than Rockler and Woodcraft? Thanks for the help! I'm thinking of carrying some Yew wood along to trade.
