The official CT Autumn GTG (07 November 2015)

[Paragon Builder]

And a huge thank you to all who came! I did not intend for y'all to cut up my firewood for me. We cut cookies all morning and had a blast! Then all of a sudden everyone was bucking logs. Must be 8-10 cord you all cut for me in an hour!
Thank you all for that!
I hope you all had as good a time as I did!
Dan

I 2nd and 3rd all the sentiments already said. It was great to meet everyone. Thank you to Dan and Mel for all the work you did to make this get together a reality. Thank you to Mel's wife who graciously did all of the cooking, both breakfast and lunch. Thank you to Al for the burgers and dogs.
Let's make this an annual event!

never ending vids, AWESOME!!!!! can listen to that music all day! Thanks for the vids Malk!

i'll try to post my vid eventually, i'll splice the little vid i took together and it'll be on the tube.

Doc Al, great to meet you.... you have some sweet saws that have a LOT of time and $$ invested... Derf, wish we had more time man, I'm sure we'd solve all everyone's chainsaw troubles! WCOREY, great meeting you! ...what saws and knowledge! RICHEVY, great meeting you ...now you are gonna need some ported saws BOOZER, wish we could have hung out a bit more Ray, hope that filing is improved! we are learning together! Mels, what a collection! super nice guy and super nice wife!! Dan, what a place you got! ideal spot, ideal equipment! Malk, the vids man, and the first to start a saw this AM.... EAGER is not a strong enough word! FORGIVE me if forgot anyone, was an awesome day.

MUSTANG MIKE.... YOU ARE AN ANIMAL WITH A SAW!!!! wow!!

Next year there were a few suggestions mentioned. #1, campout/sleepover #2, agenda. #3, racing? informal of course ...

bucking up the firewood seems appropriate to end the day, and RICHEVY had it right w/ the splitting.... we should have stayed and done that too.

What a great time, great weather, people, saws, food, dogs, and some real tough wood!!! Those big Oak rounds gave everyone a run for the money.

Erik, sorry I confused you by taking my long sleeves off, that was me in the Grey (MMWS shirt) "through the excavator". Great job with the pics & vids. I always got the black Mustang hat on.

Enjoy some more pics:

I really had a good time, was great meeting everyone and pulling the trigger on lots & lots of saws. Also, glad we could help with making some firewood, the least we could do.

Hope this becomes an annual event.

Great stuff, nice job! And as the video shows, we all worked to devour that wood pile like worker ants!

You were missed skippy, there were more than a few guys wondering if you'd made it.

Great stuff, nice job! And as the video shows, we all worked to devour that wood pile like worker ants!

actually, i'm pretty sure the video lies.... since it was Mustang Mike that pretty much did all the firewood cutting
