Milling California Laurel or Tanoak?

[Backwoods]

Some time this next week I have to make time to go look at some Myrtlewood logs and trees, that are tucked off back in one of those remote areas where no mater which direction you go to get there it is 25 miles of gravel mountain roads. There may even be a U-wood tree in the mix. I will take the camera and fishing poles with.
