ohh dass pretties...

Need a small fortune in rigging though, no guys, probably no mains/haulback/straw nothin...

$2 a foot or more, and roughly 25,000 feet of line 50k to get er rigged and ready... without a carriage, or any blocks.

Yup, that's it. It had a bit of a shine to it when I saw it. Unfortunately, the saw shop next door "don't sell no rigging" so you'd have to go elsewhere.

I think, not sure of it, that it comes from Longview. Woods Logging used to be in Morton, but that closed about 9 years ago.

Either the shops in Longview or the ones by me. Ones by me are Harbor Saw and Supply and Isaacson's. I can shoot you both phone numbers if you wan't. I know harbor saw will deliver. They have a shop in Raymond too.

We had a few here enough to close I5 across the river and a couple bad ones on HWY 30.

I'm not sure what is going on here. I think there is a combination of slides and washouts and our mountain pass is closed "indefinitely". THE main drag Forest Service Road got a big chunk washed out, and the other one also has problems. I imagine a lot of the forest roads are gone. I'm curious if the second million dollar plus bridge survived.

Highway 12 will probably get a fix like pipe and rock dumped in when they can work. The damaged areas are at upper elevations and snow has started seriously dumping up there. The ski hill had planned to open full time this weekend, but the road washouts have messed that up.

On the bright side, with the pass closed, driving to town is very pleaant. There's only log trucks, chip trucks, and local delivery trucks hauling on it and the traffic is light.

I post at the risk of being kicked out of my favorite forum. Almost four hours of solid firewood cutting today, took a break and after a two hour chase I captured these two woodland creatures for my wife:



Merry Christmas All,

Merry Christmas All,

Ron, I'm sure my mom and grandma would go nuts over these. What did you use to hold the cookies to each other for the bodies?

 

[rwoods]

Short lengths of a wood dowel. Ron
