I'd recommend doing your initial milling oversize, then sticker and see what the wood does after resting for a day or two.
What are you planning to make with this windfall?
The next room I plan to work on is the living room. I was going to do it in hard maple since I bought a bunch before prices on everything shot up. Now I'm thinking of combining the walnut with the hard maple. I'm still not sure what I want in the living room, so nothing is even on paper yet.
I think with all the suggestions I got here, I will have the walnut dimensioned in short order. My mind seems to work better when I'm standing in saw dust.

The bandsaw worked like a charm! The jointer will be cranked up this afternoon if all goes as planned.

Absolutely. I've never heard of a band saw kick back.
Your bandsaw suggestion did give me a good head start. These boards have been face and edge jointed, took a trip to the table saw, and ended the day getting a bit thinner in the DeWalt planer.
