That almost looks like fun.

I have an older copy of Sometimes a Great notion, before it was remastered... Should really get the new version. Excellent book too.

I like to point out to all the dirty hippies that Idolize Ken Kessey for Further and what not that he grew up logging... and went back to it.

My buddy Dean's grandmother used to own the tavern in Salkum.

My great grandmother used to live a couple of houses west of there.

I wonder how much experience Kessey had in the logging industry? His novels seem to lean a bit that way. Some of the best novelist could tell the story better than the ones who actually experienced it themselves.
Wordsmith's maybe.
