Last time I talked to Sandy was a few weeks ago. We are getting down to crunch time on planning. I'll go this week and talk over whatever you'all are on about liability ...
If it's a go - looks like we will not have access to a tractor this year, so we'll be cutting "where they lay". Tyler and Rob have a big old valley oak that went down and they want some bearing blocks for the Bale Mill out of that - then firewood.
Chipper is back up and running. Boom truck is running. I should have the hitch on it by GTG so we can tow the chipper.
The State will have done their Hazard Tree Inspection before the GTG, so we should have plenty to keep everyone busy. Crowd control and public safety will be major concern. Will have to have extra watchers and a bull horn to keep everything smooth...
Hopefully will have answers by Wednesday...
I imagine that if there is no public GTG, we'll stall have a ton of FPG work... So whoever is already signed up as FPG volunteers with County Releases should plan on coming as the details unfold. Maybe GTG will morph into the big FPG Volunteer Weekend - but the outcome will be similar. The Park needs the help, and you'all need to eat

Guess I'll keep my ear to the ground, then. Last year was a hoot and I'm itching to put some miles behind me. Fire season won't last forever (this last couple of weeks have been an especially short leash) and the trip down there was my last sniff of warm air before the winter set in last fall.
Can someone sticky this? I don't know how to make that happen.
Is did. We'll take it back down afterward.
Outstanding!

Maybe.
No trick or treating this year?
I went to change my signature and I got a message that said it was 96 characters too long. Is there a restriction on signature length now?

.............along with some baked goods?
Nah. GTG's more important.
I'll try to give you a ring on my way to work today. Should be in about an hour or so...

I can't bring my cell into work. Can you call after ~4.
I'm heading down to pick up a truck and trailer load of eucalyptus after work. I'll only be able to talk when I am driving. Closer to 4 is best.

Sorry Bob. I work evenings. Can't call then. Checked my emails just now during my break. Usually busy with family in the morning. Will call you this weekend.
Benny and huckleberry cookies?!!!!! Maybe we should have the GTG in my backyard. I'll supply the steaks and you guys can split my firewood for fun. Oh, and I'll guard the cookies.
I work 4x10 with Fridays off. I'm home all day tomorrow.
Bill, I brought home better than 1 1/2 cords of eucalyptus an arborist gave me from a tree removal in Cupertino. I need help with splitting wood too. BTW I didn't make any friends on Highway 17 this afternoon pulling all that weight.
