Hi Smart City Folk,  Where does this Ipe wood come from?  I never even
heard of it until it came on the horizon as a possible porch flooring
material at our soon to be constructed General Store.  I figure you folks
probly know all about it.  Unfortunately we can't afford it at any rate.
Architect is trying to stuff Trex down our throats, and we're not buying
it!!!!  We have an offer of white oak from a local fella for the same price
as the Trex and I think we are going to take it.   Just curious about Ipe
trees, as I've never come across them before.  Thanks, Ruth
