There are few others on here that live in Bloomington over to Cincy that would probably meet up at a central location.

That's how you get better faster with others sharing their knowledge. No worries, I teach so I'm in school through the week as well ;D Will keep you posted.

I might be going to beirnheim forest (sorry for misspell) tomorrow looking for branches and trees if I'm aloud to take a couple

Ask the property manager if you can cut something that is non native (like Osage ) or a nuisance species like black locust. Tell him what you're trying to do and maybe he'll help you out. Plenty of good wood in that area.

If anyone has suggestions on a meeting place that is agreeable , then load the tools, benches, wood and rock and make a day of it  ;)
