I learned what a Wendell is. Tried to repeat the story to Jer and couldn't remember. Blame the blackberries.

I learned bar oil is VERY important!!

I learned that no matter what, Jer will never quit talking about saws ;)

I learned most of the wives of these crazy men are actually normal and nice :)

I learned not to listen to Hedgerow about the crown. It WILL burn!!

I learned the Virginia people are very cool!! :)

Is he still hung up on that?? :laugh::laugh::laugh::laugh: J/K


Good to see all you fella's again, lookin forward to next time!:)
 
My favorite pic from the GTG. :)

things i know about gtg's
some folks will drive many hours for a gtg
putting on a gtg is a lot of work
the cost of gas to drive to a gtg is way too high
the cost of hosting a gtg is thru the roof
having all your as friends in one place at once and having a great time makes it all ""PRICELESS''''
 
I learned that I need to head straight home from a GTG, instead of ending up partying all night at Thunder Valley and watching the drag races the next day. :D

Ran into a couple friends of mine who had a camper set up at the track. Hell, I just got home a few hours ago. Feel like the walking dead.

Wendell, All this talk about pie............Did you eat pie there? All I seen was......................well, it was liquid.

Wendell... pie.... rumors

Why yes, yes I did. Guido should be posting the proof soon.

Proof it is:

Things I learned this weekend.

1. "Just off the Interstate" has a very different meaning in Kentucky. :laugh:
2. There doesn't appear to be a bordello in Pleasureville.
3. Guido isn't a guido. :msp_sneaky:
4. Durand needs to make an appointment with ___________. :poke:
5. The price of diesel that Indiana gas stations post on their big signs have no relation to what you actually pay.
6. Jeremy links to fiddle with his saw. A lot.

It wasn't far, just a 2 beer trip. If you owe me money you might see the Guido in me....

1. 20 miles isn't far at all down here where you can't see your destination.
2. You just haven't looked in the right place.
3. Guido isn't a short stocky Italian guy with a sharp tongue. He is a tall thin southern gentleman and a great guy to hang out with at GTGs.
4. Yes he does! TOMORROW
5. That is called "Bait & Switch"
6. Jeremy is a tech geek and learned volumes at this GTG! You will see the results at future GTGs.

At least I have Mike fooled! By the way, I bought gas for $3.03 in Williamsburg, KY yesterday.
 
Guys, the above comment has been verified....and yes, he got the donut. I have run a variety of saws, and the power to weight ratio was unbelievable for Terry's 562. I ran both 562XPs yesterday (stock and modified), and there was a VERY noticeable difference. My dad, who wasn't there, seemed concerned that a smaller saw ran soooooo much stronger than the 440. It might have to go under the tool before long:clap: On a completely different note, I know a few of you were taking pics yesterday and am looking for one of me and my son doing some cutting. I had him over near the shed cutting some softwood with the small Husky. If you guys find any I would love to have some, to me that was a great Father's Day gift, time with my son......and some of you:rock: If you find any pics let me know and I will get you my email. Terry, thanks again for such a great time.

Shea

PS-Thanks for the rounds Mike. You rock:rock::rock:

I think my wife took the photo your looking for. I haven't unpacked yet but I have a couple hundred pic to upload.
 
people learn things at GTGs?!?!?!?!?!? this is news to me.

Joey said something to me that hit home...
"Any man that will spend the time to build a good runnin saw, should know his way around a chain too..." I will remember that...
Jody and Joey were a true pleasure to be around, and true Virginia gentlemen...

I'm finally home...
My ass hurts...

A few years back i was cutting wood witha freind of mine he wasn't getting much done. I watched him for a few minutes. Asked him if I could set the carb and sharpen the chain. He said ok I could but he didn't think it needed it. After he cut with it I wheni finished he had me show him how to make a chain cut. Agood chain makes a good saw.:msp_biggrin:
