Hi Scott,
I actually live in Lexington (up 55 inbetween Bloomington and Pontiac). I do plan on checking with RP Lumber and Hundman Lumber to see what they have also. I don't mind picking through at the "chains", but neither carries the 14' lengths in stock that I want. Of course, I'll splint the stringers together if I have to, but prefer not.
Thanks,
Chris
