Still here. Got some snow last night, but it all melted before sunrise.

Hi guys.
I'd be interested in any MN or NW WI GTG's that are going on or even if its just a couple guys cutting wood. I split my time between Lake Vermilion area and North Metro so I end covering a lot of ground each week.

Wow. Been a while since I could really do anything on here thanks to linkbucks. I posted a thread about this already but I'm pretty sure it got buried. I saw Andy and Sarah on the way up to check tree stands two weeks ago. You were easy to spot with all the stickers on the back of the jeep. I waved, but I'm not sure you saw that it was me. Nice grizzly 660 too. I want one just to put the HAACK 800cc kit on.
Thanks,
Jack

660cc should be plenty fine for a guy your size, if it'll move andy I think you'd be plenty good.

Svk and Lark-o, welcome! There's quite a few of us around here. I live over in Cheeseville, south of Osceola a ways, Andy and Sarah (the DodgeGeeks) are up in Harris, Boyd (Wetgunpowder) has a shop that sells Dolmar and Jonsered in Dresser, and there's a couple guys in the Forest Lake area.
We also get drive bys from the Iowegians and a few guys from Mizzery, and a couple of Dakotans and a wayward Nebraskan wanders through from time to time.
I'm cutting a few trees at a friend's place right now, and he doesn't want anyone but me doing it, but once I hit the woods at home (probably right after Turkey day), y'all are welcome to stop out and run anything you got, or I have.

Nope not ready here, working to many hours at the Co-op. Still only have hafe a face cord in the basement. Need 6-7 full cord to make it thru winter. Need some hard ground and time to get wood in. On the other news I did by a new log splitter from Triptester here on the sight, that thing is sweet, still havn't had a chance to run it, or even take pictures of it.

Snowplow's going on tomorrow - temporarily. Gonna hang it on the truck and drop the blade off the frame, so I can take the blade to my buddy's place for a sandblast and paint. I should see about a rebuild kit for the pump, it's getting pretty weak. Still got a bunch of stuff to move out of the way for winter so I don't need to plow around it. Got a cord and a half of oak downstairs, and a couple weeks' worth of box elder that I'm burning now. I'm gonna start tossing some elm and cottonwood down there as well, so I can mix and match as needed.
Splitter and tractor are over at my brother's place, about a 45 minute drive on the M. Thinking it ain't gonna warm up much more this year, so probably gonna go bring it home tomorrow. I've got about a cord here waiting to be split, and probably 2+ more coming from my buddy's place.
In a nutshell, I ain't ready for winter yet. I never really am, but always manage to get through it.

In the stand. Browsing AS. Look what you guys have done to me. I'm a saw addict officially now. Oh well. Already shot an eight pointer this year (unofficial score of 136"). I feel some neg rep is coming my way for that one.
Blaine near the sports center.
Hunting today as well. 4" of fresh snow overnight. A buck walked past my stand after the snow stopped last night and I saw a doe at 7:00 this morning.
No deer for our crew. People down the road got a fork horn. Not many shots, bad opening morning. Tomorrow should be pretty perfect. Got some tinks 69 out to maybe help.

Hey! I found my imaginary friends!
Got a big 6 pointer at 11:00. Should have been an 8 but missing brow times. My 7 year old son was in the stand at the time and thought it was awesome.
