You are awsome , THANKS ALOT , it was realy great to see you.Ernie hosted a most excellent GTG. It is obvious that Ernie, Sawmandave, and Erine's other friends and family put a huge amount of effort into this GTG. The location was about perfect and the set up with tons of wood made the sawing safe for everyone. The food was incerdible, it alone would be more than worth the drive. A huge thanks to Erine's family for the food. A thank you is also in order for Henry and Randy for the raffle prizes. It was great to reconnect with folks from last year's GTG and to meet new friends. This GTG was better than last year's and it probably won't be long before these GTG's will be refered to as " The world Famous Central Virginia GTG".
Tom is not a midget, but he does drive a Subaru. He also gave Randy another puzzle in a box.
My camera sat in my chair all day. Seems like I spent most of my time putting on and taking off bars and chains.
What an AWESOME time I had today! This was my first GTG, but it sure won't be my last. What a great bunch of guys. Thanks to Ernie and all those who worked so hard to make it an outstanding event.

The ole Dodge got me back home though it has a bad shimmy around 90mph....... Don't know if that is the low gears fightin back or the truck screaming for mercy??
Will get some pictures uploaded shortly.
I'm Home!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
What a great GTG.
Ernie, you are the man my friend.![]()
That was the best one yet. Awesome vittles and Ernies saw mill was something else for a city slicker like myself. I can't believe I screwed up my remodel time table at home and had to leave a little early. I really appreciated all of the help from the usual suspects on some saw issues giving me fits. I'd also like to give a shout out thanks to new to me member Henry "Weedeaterman" who really went out of his way to help me finally sort out the nagging fuel delivery issue on my SOLO 642 106cc. I am going to bring make wife down to that neck of the woods for Halifax Co. Heritage Day in May and Field Day in September. We both want to relocate when I leave my job and can't stand Maryland any longer.
This GTG was great for me. Normally when we go the a GTG racing is the big thing and stopwatches are everywhere. This was a welcome change and I really enjoyed the laid back atmosphere. I never saw a stopwatch nor any square wood and I had a blast.
Watching the two man saws chew through a log was a treat......I had never seen those in action before. I'm sure it's just a matter of time before Jon has to have one for his growing collection of Mag saws.
I can see the Central VA GTG becoming a "must attend" event for Jon and myself. Ernie has a very nice setup and is a fine host. The vittles alone were worth the drive.
I also want to say a huge thanks to Showrguy (Chuck) and his lovely wife for hauling that mill to VA and meeting us there with it. It really means a lot that you guys went out of your way to do that for us.
I can't begin to express what a great friend Tom (thomas1) is. What a great guy......He brought a truckload of saws and parts to swap/trade/barter/? and just said "take all this stuff we'll work something out". Over the last year I bet Tom has given us 10 saws and who knows how many parts. We have his Remington 990 Super here now and will be doing the works on it including a fresh coat of powder.......with any luck is will look like a new saw when he gets in back.
Thanks for the pie Gary. :msp_wink:

Noy sure of the model, or vintage, but here is a nice Stihl 2-man in action
-If Sawmandave gets a grin on his face and he's standing near the but of log, watch out a noodle shower is coming on.
