George,

Um...what part of the country are you in? Wisconsin's right around the corner from me. WRC stocks are strange, sometimes yards have tons of it and other times nothing. If I had the space (working on that) I would normally buy cedar when I find it and just store it for future use. Yes I know this is expensive, but less so than paying top dollar right when you need it.
