[QUOTE="Blackhorse, post: 526085, member: 1365"] Very few Pines (except landscaping). Most all conifers are Douglas Fir...some Hemlock as well. Sidebar: The local mills saw the timber they receive into lumber and the species designation is “Hem-Fir” as they are so alike in construction characteristics and probably separated by loggers or sawyers. If you bought a hundred 2”x4”x8’ pieces even graded standard and better you would likely get 80 pieces of Doug Fir and 20 of Hemlock. All would be stamped Hem-Fir. (Ratio is not exact, used for example). And I’ve been through Rochester (in the Spring) and don’t think the two cities are even slightly alike. But that’s just me. Like you I didn’t see much. Lotta standing water. Metro Urban Population...Rochester. about a million...Portland, a little under two and a half million. At about 2,700 miles apart, they are both great cities. [/QUOTE]
