I have to say how amusing this is to me. My father started his own pallet mfg. business in 1968. I learned the business and worked there right out of high school(almost 30 yrs.) I became a female business person retiring in 2003. Even tho my heart was in decorating/gardening, who knew someone could take a pallet and repurpose it so uniquely and lovely. I have to say, this made my day!! From one sweetie to another.....Roxie
