One and a half years ago it was a big leaf maple tree threatening to fall on our neighbors pump house, one year ago it was a stack of milled wood in Sultan, six months ago it was a bunch of sanded planks and boards in a Monroe wood shop, two days ago is was an unfinished table in my garage and now thanks to a close friend and a lot of patient craftsmanship it is a 107" x 45" solid maple dining room table that will forever symbolize 2010 for our family. This table stands for the successful completion of my probation with Sno. Co. Fire District 1, the sale of our old house and the building of our dream home. This year, like the table, has been a lot of work that often times seemed endless. Now that they are complete they will both provide memories and lessons. For instance: I don't ever want to deal with mortgage and title companies when it comes to a mobile home and secondly I don't ever want to build another table again.
