I'm really looking forward to seeing everybody, and making some chips!

I'll work on a couple more pics. I didn't take that many. The landowner was there with a real camera and is going to give us some copies.

Here's the news crew from KY3 that came to get the story on the Charity Cut.

This is what Hedgerow did most of the afternoon. That splitter of his is pretty neat.

 

[diggers_dad]

This would be Digger, who actually did some work. He didn't think the tractor was bringing in the wood fast enough from below us. He went down and decided to bring up some himself.

Everybody, I can't thank you enough for the help that you have provided so far this season. I sincerely hope that you all had a good time here today. Last count I heard, around the end of December, 93 pick up truck loads have been distributed throughout the county. These households were able to stay warm, through the bitter cold, directly because of your efforts and extreme generosity.
I am blessed to have friends like you all.
Thank you,
Steve

I can't speak for anyone other than myself, but the pleasure was all mine. Good folks, good food, good fun. I got to see some old friends and meet some new ones. I had the opportunity to SHOW my boys about helping someone else, not just talk about it. It makes the lesson much more real.

On top of that, I was given the opportunity to share some of the things I've been blessed with and know those things will be used and appreciated by the new owners.

Even better - Lurch and I did NOT hit the cabin with the walnut tree. It was nip and tuck there for a minute.

Best of all - no injuries of note to anyone, just some minor scrapes and scratches.

Steve - thanks for the effort in organizing everything and keeping it going smoothly. Count me in for the next one. I'll be ready by Saturday.
