"10th Annual Hackensack Chainsaw Event
September 26-28, 2014

We're celebrating 10 years of chainsaw carving. Some of the nation's top carvers are returning - names like Bob King or Dayton Scoggins. There will be 12 carvers working their magic with logs and chainsaws. The three day events includes the All American Lumberjack show, quick carves, food and arts vendors. The show concludes with an auction of the pieces carved, which starts at noon September 28th. Admission is $5, good for all three days. Free parking and shuttle service."

Hackensack, MN is between Brainerd and Bemidji, MN, south of Leech Lake.

How's things out your way? I've been busy cutting wood. Finally got out fishing for the first time this year, did good, caught lots of northerns. Biggest was 34". Hope to see you at one of the races this summer.

I went walleye fishing with my dad and brother and uncle and cousin and we caught a total of 6 walleye and 50+ northern. We could only keep 2 of the walleye but the biggest northern was around 26". If you like catching northern I'll give you the name of the lake. Put a spoon and a leader on and I'd bet you could catch 40+ inchers all day.

I hate it when things stick out of the clouds...

The picture was looking towards the area I live but not sure how far south east it really is.

Stihl Livin I hope it didn't touch down. I had to deal with one of those last year. Not fun.

Well the long spring and wet weather made for a very tiring time at the coop. One pay period I was 11 hours shy of a 200 hour pay check. Last weekend was the first full weekend I had off since early may. I have moved the saws around In the garage and that's about it. Going to Crandon this weekend to watch some off-road races and relax. How is the search for the dodge going?

Found out the funnel clouds were cold weather funnel clouds and rarely touch down. Either way still not fun to see that close to home.

I think a good, solid Friday worth of splittin' and stackin' would go a long way toward filling that fancy new shed!!!

That sounds sweet to me. So on Friday, July 18 we will be cutting, splitting, and stacking at the Dodgegeeks house. Everyone is welcome to come and work/play and also camp over if they wish. I might as well also add that the Rush City fair has its truck and tractor pull on Friday night if anyone is interested. They have the big pro pulling tractors there, I missed it last year but heard that it was good. Try to let us know who all can make it so we can try to plan for some eats. I just want to say thank you in advance to anyone that helps me and Sarah cut wood to keep our house/shop heated, you people are good people.

 

[Hedgerow]

You got a splitter right?

 

[Oliver1655]

Be careful Hedge, they might think a splitting maul counts.
Were you planning on doing any wood at Denny's that weekend?
