Submitted for the approval of the Midnight Society, I present to you The Tale Of The Cedar Planter Box.

Solid cedar, mortise and tenon joinery, with a nice bead detail on the slats. Garden hose sold separately, pine straw not included.

It looks good but I don't know if it qualifies. I don't see any plants, you've only posted "a box"

It's the woodworking part of the planter box. This isn't [email protected]

You know, it's kind of horseshit that nobodies story ever sucked so bad that, at the end, they were rejected From The Midnight Society.

They always told an absolute banger, and Sam would give them this knowing smile that said, "You're in, brother."

If I'm remembering the show correctly, there were some permanent members, and occasional inductees. I seem to remember one being rejected, then telling another story and getting in.

These are memories of a framing device of a children's scary story anthology series from thirty years ago.
