Mini GTG in NW Oregon

[Heffalump]

Not too far from the job or farm maybe I’ll make a trip towards Hillsboro.

PM me for address and directions.

 

[Heffalump]

I need a road trip.

You are more than welcome here, good sir.

Will you be at Bob's the following weekend?

 

[Heffalump]

Logs are up and scraped clean of moss and dirt.

Ready for next weekend!!!

Nice job Dave, looking forward to it.

Tomorrow is almost here! Weather is supposed to be high 70's and sunny.

Burger patties are prepped, chicken is in the marinade. I will have pants on by 11am. Anyone who gets here before that will see what they see.

PM me for directions, and see folks tomorrow!

I'm shooting for not long after noon. My morning-fu is not strong.

 

[Heffalump]

Awesome that you're coming Nate!

Bob and T are supposed to be coming again, as well!

I’d love to make it but our baby girl showed up on Tuesday morning at 2 so it’s a no go for me this year.

That's a pretty good excuse. I'll give it a pass.

Well, it was a degree or two above the high 70's, and someone hit a power-pole around 12:30. Realized that I had neglected to refill my gasoline supply for the summer around 1:30...right after the generator ran out of gas...which was right while we were prepping to eat...and just as the sheep-shearer showed up.

Yes. I attempted to shear a sheep. Gotta keep GTG's interesting.

Anyhoo, Mrs. Heffalump bombed down the hill to refill a couple of fuel cans and everything worked out OK. Some of the chicken was a little dry, and I need a LOT of practice shearing sheep, but there was plenty of good food and good folks and good saws!

Many thanks to Bob and T and Shannon and Nate and Don and Sharon and Larry and Maria and, most of all, to Mrs Heffalump. She's pretty darn amazing!!!

Dave's sheep shearing lesson.

That 044 is a terror! I swear I thought it had an air leak at first; there's no way an 044 is THAT fast! Considering that the 044/MS440 are the saws I have the most hours on, that thing really threw me for a loop. I am a fan!

Also: Just occurred to me that I spaced off my fuel jug and a jug of bar oil. I would be thrilled if you would bring them along net week so that I could retrieve them.

Once again: thanks to you and yours for hosting this shindig. It was a great trip to and from a great event to make a great day!
