Going to miss you Mark! You really had the Mac Boys juices flowing!..... ......Until next time.................Bob

 

[Eccentric]

Well I am sorry to report my schedule has now been finalized and I will not be able to make it out as originally intended.

I will leave for Australia next Monday, returning on Friday 10 June to leave for Europe on 12 June.

Bob, I will try to contact you later on today...

Mark

Rats!!!!!!!


I was really looking to see you there. Hope you can come out next year. Maybe you can make it for the NorCal GTG that's in the planning stages for next fall. That discussion's in the "Sonoma, Lake, Mendocino County" thread.

Guess I need to work out some shipping details for Jeff too...

Edit:

Maybe I should sabotage one of the mills in the area so that they need some 'emergency' service from you and your employer.........

Hey Bob, will you have the charcol grill out to use? I am looking forward to seeing you and Liz again. Can't wait to catch up on all that is new this year. See you soon.

 

[Farley9n]

Charcol Grill &

All the same stuff is still there! Doing up the kitchen area is just about all that is left to do!!!
Today and tomorrow "T" and I are going to remove the last of our downed Cedar then pick up some Cottonwood for him to mill into 10 x 10" Cants for the racers. ( that would be you and slowp ) Seems like it's not going to stop raining some for the next few days but I am hoping we can get as good a weather as last year!
For a GOOD TIME call a PNW GTG!!!...............Bob

Anything else needed. If ya got a climbing section of the fair grounds I can bring my fat boy climbing gear. I can toss in a few modern day work horses, don't have anything vintage running. Won't be be much on running saws this year but I sure do like to BS with everyone.

Bit Of An Update From

Farleyville!.....:msp_smile:........
The weather sucks but we have still been able to get a few things done! Large percentage of the logs have been peeled and pressure washed, the axe target is no longer a railroad tie jungle jim, and we have cleaned up some of the camping areas. Next up is the kitchen area and then maybe some parts of the barn/shop.
Bailey's was kind enough again to send another gift box. In the box is a terrific book! It's called; High Climbers and Timber Fallers by GF Beranek. It covers the old growth to second growth logging in Northern California around the Mendacino county area! Great Pictures! Whoever wins this needs to share it!!!
By the way, Bailey's isn't the only one sending gifts to share! We will have lots of nice give aways!
As the time draws near, if you don't know how to get here or just need some details cleared up please PM me.
Tomorrow is susposed to be a better day so I will take some pictures and post em for you!........Bob

SP, the BS is one of the best parts.

 

[slowp]

Sounds like a vanload of Montannians is coming this year.

 

[Farley9n]

Hey Owl!

There are two climbing trees! Both still VIRGINS!!! From one you can fall right into the RandyMac redwood grove. From the other you won't be quite so lucky! This year I have a nice looking Stihl top handle saw that will be up one of the trees as a climbers prize!
As to the B/S ........World Class!..................Bob

You must be a fossil!!!:taped:
And she cant make as she is performing back east!!!

 

[Ambull]

Bring a few Pioneer saws ......You know, the real Canadian ones.

Back east, Canadians are known for their nudie bars. My guess is that would not be appropriate at this event....

I am fresh out of Pioneer saws!!!:msp_w00t:
Western Canadians are more civilized, the the ones back East.
So we only have 'peeler bars':help:
And I dont have room for one in my truck!!!

Little Picture

Of Last year. This was from the west end of the field. There was also more wood behind the trucks at the other end of the barn. Same setup this time. Time is getting short!!!.....Bob.....

Are my eyes playing tricks on me, or is that a Big Green Egg in the background of that picture?

Be nice. Even fossils appreciate good music.
