Sarah,

I'll send you my e-mail address via PM - maybe you can send me a PDF ( or other printable) version?

Thanks

Pics from the 4th. First was our mascot for the day, hen turkey that hung out in the field all morning.

The setup, band mills are pretty cool.

Jon hauling more logs to the mill:

Some of the crew. Duane (5Rinc), Jon (Heavy Fuel), Sarah (hiding behind Jon) and Andy, the Dodgegeeks:

A poor shot of loading Andy's old Dodge with cants:

I thought I had more pics, but I don't know what happened to them. I do have a short video loading.

Was tied up with work for a while, and have been 'catching up' on some of the left over storm clean up work in the Cities. HOT! HUMID! HOT!. (Did I also mention the humidity?)

Did get to run an MS 261 for the first time. Nice. A little heavier than I would like, but nice.

Good luck with your new job JD.

Make sure your housing is locked in before you go! Read about a lot of guys sleeping in parking lots there.

good luck with the new job, JD!
of course, this begs the next question(S)...
Before we start putting Flyers up all over town, is Jon going to be able to take over trailer duty for all 3? Are we still on for all 3 fairs?
I'm sure I'm not the only one who had been thinking about this anyway, but this just change of plans reminded me to actually ask: how about a roll call... Who is planning on being at which fair?

That's a silly question. No one moves to Williston permanently.
