We are bordered by Yorba Lind...

I'm a big granite fan too, though I love the new polymers that are coming out even more.  Thanks to Jeremy for dispelling many of the myths.  It's too bad we can't reduce client's concerns that they can't put very hot or very cold items on the surface and they cannot cut on the surface, like the...
