My Dad and I....





On one of my recent visits home, my Dad and I went to visit one of the sawmills he continues to "broker" lumber for. He has been one of the biggest lumber brokers on the east coast for over 30 years. It is a fast moving, unbelievably competitive and high-risk business. There are no "formal" places to learn how to be a lumber broker. I had the priviledge of learning this business directly from my Dad. Although, I didn't continue in the lumber business, so much of what he taught me, I've been able to use in the music business. I am so lucky to have had that expereience.
