: I live in the Minneapolis area. The Home Depot..

I am also in the MPLS area, don't waste any time looking at HD, they don't carry ANY lumber worth buying.

For cedar, go to Scherer Bros, they carry Aye grade cedar to 20' at the Medberry store. It's expensive but very nice. The Medberry store also carries A grade redwood to 20'. They carry D grade cedar at the MPLS store to 16'. D is cheaper but has some knotts.
