Sylvester and Emanuel cleaning up. They sell the wood shavings to horse owners who use it to put in the bottoms of their horse stalls - recyling at work.




At a recent show (the Diplomatic Spouses Luncheon), John gets surrounded by a group of chefs admirinig their rosewood butcher block table.


The First Lady of Zambia stopped by the booth to admire the handiwork. Scott, John's partner and Peter are in the front.
