Boyd and I delivered the new conveyor this evening-right before another big rain. Breakfast in Siren at 7am and off to the worksite. Have good boots and some bug spray-it's going to be that kind of day!
 
Wow. What a day. I believe there were 34 people and it's estimated that we cut about 2 semi loads worth of logs for approximately 20 cord. Thanks to all AS and Non-AS members that chipped in! This goes a long way towards the start of next year's deliveries!

For those of you who have helped this charity-you may have in the past been to Terry and Connie Bowar's home foe dinner after a hard days work. Terry is battling cancer again and needs our help cutting up his load of logs for boiler wood this winter. Plans are to do this on Oct 6th starting at 8am at his house just down the road from Denny's. Cutting it long and not much splitting should make this a pretty quick job-then over to Denny's time permitting to process some of the random piles in the woodyard.

I'll be there!
 
Thanks to all who contributed to yesterdays effort. Especially 5RINC for his skidsteer and operating expertise! Terry's wood was processed in a little over 2 hours-plus the crew took down and cleaned up 6 standing oaks in his yard. All but a pile of large rounds were cleaned up at Denny's. The yard should be in good shape for winter. We are planning to "work the woodpile" again on SATURDAY Oct 19th and again in early November. Two more good days should put Denny in good shape for 2020 if Mother Nature rears her ugly head early. Grizz was the cameraman yesterday-hopefully pics to follow.

Thanks again!

Great day in the woodpile yesterday. Not as large a crew as last time but put another huge dent in the log pile. Special thanks to 5Rinc and the whole Robert's family crew. Three generations of dedicated men who have a real passion for giving! Thanks also to dieselfitter who reassembled the back-up elevator and stole all of the gingersnap cookies!!! We even had our Wisconsin State Assembly Rep Gae Magnifici there to help too! Pictures to follow.
