Cedar is very nice. It doesn't hold temperature as well as a rock, however, it does smell really nice and it keeps insects away.
Madeline,
I want to apologize to you for commenting the way I did. There was no reason for me to try and make you look foolish or stupid. In doing so, I was and am the the foolish one here. I am truly sorry for bashing you like that whether it be on an open forum or a PM like this.
I hope you can accept my apology and if you would like me to go public with it, I would be more than happy to do so. Thank you for taking the time to read this and also for being so pleasant
