Should have seen our roads back in the day. Used to be log trucks every where. You are only seeing the left overs with "small" logs. Enjoy Madsens my wife and I always talk about winning the lotto when we go there so we can buy everything we want and the land to use it on.

Yes, you can tell you camera to take lower quality/resoultion picturs, but it's almost always better to keep your original image quality high and resize afterwards. It is really simple to resize.. I guess I'm going to have to show you when you get here...

BTW, I have a place to take you to that will blow your socks off... remember the "piles of saws thread"... we'll you 'aint seen nothing yet! Bring your wallet. :hmm3grin2orange:

When River gets up here, I'll take him and my camera... I'm pretty much used to piles of old saws, but.. well.. let's just say.. I was in shock... Went though a pickup FULL of old cylinders on their way to the recycler, and picked out several great 045/56 cylinders, a real nice 084 cylinder (na na na na:hmm3grin2orange: ), 028s cylinder and piston, 031 etc etc etc... and just scratched the surface.
