Minnesota,Wisconsin,Iowa, Dakotas GTG's thread

[WoodAbuser]

Unfortunately I have another commitment that weekend so won't be able to make it. [emoji21]

I'm sure it will be a great time!

Sorry to hear that. We were looking forward to meeting you. I hope all is going well on your remodel.

 

[FlyingDutchman]

Good luck with the meet. Putting this past my brother in law.

Where was the show?

It's called Harvest Fest near River Falls, WI. Usually the same weekend the MN State Fair starts.

It looks like you work hard for your fun.

It is hard work, but the results are worth it. That mill only gets run just this one time a year, maybe one or 2 more if someone asks the owner very politely.

Bring your favorite saw/saws to show off and use for making the firewood pile grow.

If somebody has a chipper they could bring that would be great. We could sure use some mulch for around our berry plants.

Thank you we are looking forward to meeting you and learning from your experiences.

ps Tall tales are allowed during lunch.
pps We have arraigned for overflow parking at a spot just down the road from our place.

We have been busy cutting brush and pulling out downed trees to buck. The second photo is the area we would like to clear. The last two are big maple's that will be lots of fun. They are 3 to 4 feet in diameter.

Are you by Eldorado then? That’s a couple miles north of west union. Either way that’s only 30 minutes from me.

Just off 150 on Nature Road. Some of the locals call it Auburn Road. It takes you to Auburn and St. Lucas.
We sure would love to have your help.

Awesome!
I’m currently waiting for a service guy to fix a flat tire on my Escape. While waiting for him i called and made an appointment for Wednesday to get my brakes on the truck fixed. Yesterday I could make a right turn just by using the brakes.

I guess that was a bit optimistic. LOL

Still working on it. [emoji21]
