Speaking of deer season Jimmy, right around the corner for us it seems. Can't wait! You on facebook? If so look up our group all sportsmen and women the Alliance of dog men
Hi RandyMac. I wasn't born in Scotia but my wife was. I lived on Williams st. in the 60's, 5th in the 70's and 3rd before I moved to Fortuna. Probably know or seen your relatives for time to time. I ran the Burger crane from '74 till 92. Caught the last years of the log train. 45 cars of mostly single or 2 log loads.
Joe, my family worked at PL for decades, my Grandfather was the Production Superintendent back in the '60s, my Dad was a sawfiler at Mill "B", my Bro played with little boards in the factory. I was born in Scotia, we lived on 4th street
Thank u my friend, and so great to meet you. Threads like this I had hoped it would bring a family together and it did. Gives us a place to keep sacred and small. A fine band if you will. Look me up Norm Green on facebook.Great thread Normzilla44! Hi, I'm an old newbe from Humboldt county. Never cut down one of these giants, but handled thousands of them while working 37 years for the old Pacific Lumber Co. There is a new group just started on Facebook by the name Humboldt Loggers and Fallers. Might want to check it out. Also they post all the sumitted pictures on they're website humboldtloggersandfallers dot com. I don't know what RandyMac looks like but he might be in one or more of these. Hate to post and run but am heading to the Bay area early in the morning to see family for Easter. Have a wonderful weekend!
Joe

Bill, Jimmy, Jerry great to see yous. Same to you and welcome D.lane. Great pictures Bill, and Jerry I bet that was one hell of an awesome drive. I would like to get to Leggett someday Jimmy and D.lane, heard of it never been there. Only been to Eureka once, and really loved the drive, and Redwoods along the way.:msp_thumbup:
Its always my pleasure to drop into this thread and remeniss over my trips through your fair land. I have been lucky enough to have traveled throughout your State a fair bit now and am comfortable with finding my way around out there now.My next trip out that way I will try to look you and Randy up, even if its just for a cup of coffee.
Don't forget me Jerry.
I will have to line all you Cali dudes up in a row, I think you live closest to San Fran. than the rest.
Yep. I also work near SF. Dave (Ckelp) is about 20 minutes from me. Norm's about 45 minutes north on 101. Randy's about 5-6 hours farther north in the PNW.
Nice bit of work, did you mean 40 inch and 24 inch laying parallel?
Be a pleasure to meet up with you as well Jerry. Jimmy I love it I am also a outdoor nut. I love the redwood country as you know. I also run my dogs on pigs, and get to see all of gods country. We cut wood, and do tree work on 5-6 hunting ranches for trade, and wood for us. Sometimes I just load up the dogs, and go for a drive. My favorite loop is Skaggs springs, from healdsburg, up to tin barn, then king ridge road, and into Cazadero. I am also involved in lpro legislation, and fighting anti hunting, or anti gun, or sporting legislation. V.P for Ca houndsmen for conservation, then president of my own group and club the Alliance of dog men.
No, the big log Cody and Jake are sitting on was 40' long and the small one was 24' long.
