LOCAL SCENE
beauty in the rough | There's nothing that says you can't bring fine craftsmanship to the woodshed | Farm families and country folk all too often take a drubbing from urban culture aesthetes | Perhaps the fact that some ways of living call for toil and sweat on the basics, that little time is left for finery | This is not to say that those of us outside high-rise ghettos fail to appreciate the inportance of detailing | Sometimes it shows up in the most unexpected places ...and that's a bonus for us |
