The Whiskey Post

We Take a Moment To Get the Stack Just Right
 The shipwrights in the family explained the tradition that the final plank is celebrated as the Whiskey Plank. We felt it was okay to borrow the idea even if we only finished the Posts. It's a big piece of the puzzle!!
Finally all 14 Posts Cut, Labeled, and Stacked
