These are actually pretty cool, and I hope they're in good enough shape that I can get a lot of use out of them. One of the old buildings downtown is being completely renovated.

I have 40 or so planks of 4-6+ feet each. They look like oak. They are definitely 100+ years old. And if enough of them are in good enough shape, I think I've got a deck, a nice floor for the back room, or at worst some serious shelves and furniture.
And in the critter file, this fierce creature decided to set up house under the original pile. I've tried to cover the cleaned wood a little better...
