Who's up for a GTG? I can supply food, drinks, beer, etc. The biggest trees I have to cut around the house are 20"-25" max, hardwood, oak. If any of you guys burn firewood, you may want to bring a truck/trailer. I'm off on Saturday's as of now but that could change. Sat. or Sunday would be best. I'm in Laurinburg NC, right off 15-501, between Aberdeen and Laurinburg.

I can also have 5 gallons of fresh 93+HP Ultra mix and Stihl bar oil on hand so you can leave your gas cans at home. If we burn up 5 gallons, the store is 500 yards away.....I will have a tach also and screnches for Stihl saws. As of now the only thing you will have to bring is chaps/glasses.

Hmmm...

Where are you in relation to Asheville, Sylva, or Highlands, NC? I got family there, and might try the drive again, esp if another Kansan goes with.

Asheville is about 3.5-4 hours away, I think. I don't know where Sylva or Highlands is.

I would be interested and I know of a few more guys that would probably be as well. We are in Lexington, SC.

2000ssm6 · Apr 4, 2008

I was asked how about a weekend in June? Sounds ok to me. We are in a crappy little town but we do have 4 nice hotels/1 bar if anyone wants to stay. I have some outside power outlets if anyone wants to camp but it will be dam hot in June. :dizzy:

Just throwing out some dates....... I will start passing around my address/cell # in pm's when I know more will show and a date is set. I rather not put it on a public site.
