Love the Moon Pie sign (in the trailer)! Full Disclosure: My sweetheart is a Tennessee Lamb, born-and-raised in the Moon Pie City (Chattannoga).

Wishing that she gets that Golden Ticket!

Those interlocking slats sound like an interesting product: - Only thing to consider there is that aluminum (being so conductive), can get to "popping" during temperature changes Might not even be an issue, but could make for a lousy night's sleep if it's an issue at all... Do you have any...
