Actually Jo , it is just a little better then 200 miles so not quite as far as you think Pieter unless you drive slower then us lol . Well Faye, hate to say it, but you're incorrect with your distance, it's more like 469 Km (291 miles) from Richmond to Salmon Arm. Driving straight through, without any stops you should be able to do it in about 5.5 hrs. I prefer to stop off for a java somewehere along the line and that'll take me to between 6 and 7 hrs for the trip. Haven't had time to add some of my shots to this thread, but I will tomorrow.

As I was writing about the wide edges I was thinking of Autumn Frost. That's another favorite. I was tempted to get Ben Vernooij, but I thought it might be too much of a look alike. Now I'm kicking myself for passing it up.

Well the Largo Mix not an option anymore. I borrowed a couple samples from the store. The big ones that are 18" wide and 5' tall. Laid them on my kitchen floor and put the chair as normal. Sat in the chair to simulate sliding in to the table for every day use and was disappointed. Chair left rub marks from the plastic and a few minor scratches as well from very small grains of ? Probably something like fine sand or something that every house has tracked into it regardless of how diligent we are. That was only about 4 simulations of sitting down at the table. Thumbs down. Going to try this test on the AduraMax and AduraMax Apex if we can find a sample we like.

I put Gravity Rocks into a new bed thats getting sun from 10 a.m. until around 3 p.m.. It would probably be way too much sun but this year we're having so much rain and clouds that I'm getting away with murder this year. I removed three spruce trees that use to shade this area but their roots were sucking the life out of my hostas.
