Hey Shell,
See those little bumps on the sign, rumor has it, that it is small bits of maple bark from French Street. Which I can neither confirm nor deny.

Atta girl, Bobbie! "Lizzie Borden of The Rockies!" I love it.
Was it cast in aluminum? It's going to look cool when it's set in place.

Now that is cool! What a neat gift! I agree, every girl needs a "Maplecroft" of her own.

It was a 2x6 piece of wood and a lot of sweat. I am so thrilled with it, I am having a hard time with the final placement as it would look good in so many places.
