After having completed the installation of Antique Heart Pine Flooring I sat down in a corner one wet evening trying to capture the vibrations of bygone days. The pine on the flooring almost seemed to talk. Once long leaf pine dominated the south. It is said that this ancient timber is the ‘wood that built America’. The early settlers used it to build ships and cabins. The resin also came in handy. Soon the land was decimated of trees. What is used for flooring today is from buildings that have been pulled down and refurbished. It is really nostalgic, isn’t it?
