NW Indiana GTG

[fossil]

Old saws like to stay asleep like us old guys.

If Mark H could start now with that MM he might get a couple of sides done by Saturday.

 

[heimannm]

Hey now, if I started tonight I could get three sides done by Saturday...well two sides and one end at least.

Might be more useful wedging some of the logs to keep them from rolling.

What time you fellers going to show up?

 

[Guido Salvage]

Hey Gary / Guido... I am still hoping you can swing past Osgood and pick up a box of magazines for me.

Let me know if you need a drive up address for Joyce (Chainsaw Lady).

Thanks & Regards,

Mark

P.S. I just got home today and will be leaving again on Tuesday so I won't have the Solo 611 Twin along unless I bring it in pieces.

Anyone coming from Cincy that can help Mark out? I am looking at a 5.5 hour drive and it would add an hour to deviate off I-65 to make the pickup.

 

[blsnelling]

I talked to Mark last week.

 

[Modifiedmark]

I talked to Mark last week.

You sure did but that deal went south. I believe he is talking about Mark H though..

 

[Modifiedmark]

I have a traffic update...

Anyone coming from the east and are heading west into Hebron on St Rt 8. Rt 8 is closed just as you get into Hebron. You can make a easy round about it by taking 500W which is just about 2 miles before you get to Hebron and go south on it.

Go as far as you can south on it and it will turn to the right and bring you to the stop sign at Rt 231 and Rt 2. Go straight through the stop sign and you will now be on Rt 2 and take it to Clay street and turn left.

Easy...

I have another update, wife was in Hebron today and said the road closed signs were all down so you can disregard the earlier traffic update. ​

 

[heimannm]

Still hoping someone coming from the Cincinnati are can help with a slight detour to stop near Osgood and pick up a box of magazines from Chainsaw Lady for me.

Thanks,

Mark (Heimannm)

Been looking forward to this GTG since it was first proposed and Mark has invited me over several times and Chris and Mark had a good time over this way at an auction earlier this year but I will just have to hear about the good times from all those in attendance.
I will be in Michigan this Friday and Saturday with family so I have to mark off.

Everyone have a great time and take lots of pictures!

I think it was decided around 8-9. Just remember we're on central/Chicago time here.

Disappointing news.

 

[bowtechmadman]

No ball tournament but work may have to take precedence we just installed 4 new robots...long story short still a maybe.

 

[Tom Erwin]

I may have missed it but is there a address that I can use for my GPS to get me there?

 

[LowVolt]

Unfortunately my maybe is going to be a no. My wife is due August 15 with our second child and just have a lot on my plate. Really wish I could make it. Mark and Chris are as good as they come and will be excellent hosts. Make sure to post lots of pics/videos. Most importantly everyone have safe travels and safe sawing.

 

[crazy4saws]

Delawter, thats a bummer you wont be able to make it. I was looking forward to catching up with you since the auction. Enjoy your time with the family.

I will be there for sure this saturday. Been working seven 12s for the past 6 weeks and it finally looks like we will have a weekend off. I dont have any saws to bring as my Mac 77 isnt put back together. But it looks like there will be some MAC power at this years GTG!!!

Looking forward to meeting some more AS members.

[heimannm]

I have a 77 runner in the truck, you can see what you will have in advance...

Mark

 

[crazy4saws]

Sounds great Mark, look forward to meeting you

I thought Chris posted it, but maybe not.

I'll get him to get it to you.
