I've only had the Mighty Mite for a few months now and haven't told anybody except for the forum members that I even had it....came in from work today and look what I found in the driveway



don't have any idea where they came from or who left them...does anybody here want to confess to hauling me a bunch of logs down here in Georgia ??? ???

That kind of thing happens to us from time to time.  We've got to where we just put them aside and sooner or later someone will call or drop by and tell us what they want from them.

Yup, the tree fairy does visit every once and awhile. 1 or 2 are usually gift logs or swap for slab for firewood, a driveway full someone will surely call. (unless it rains logs in Ga., wouldn't want to be outside during a downpour- ouch)
Experience is something you don't get until just after you need it.

I cant tell you the number of great logs people have given me for free.  When I tell them they can have all the slab wood they want the seem to be on a mission to find more trees.  8)

Well, I can say for sure that I didn't do it.  I do have some that I mighta done that with, but that ain't them. :D  Cut'em up and sell'em real quick!

Garey,
Just want to be able to visualize this correctly.  Were these dropped in the one and only driveway to your place, or on a secondary driveway leading to your sawmill?  I promise I won't grin ear to ear if it was the only driveway to your house and you had to drive through the grass to get home.  ;D ;D

With the new puppy the missus brought home, If I leave my boots outside on the porch...the next morning I don't find any acorns...in fact, I usually can't find my boots :D :D

Careful now Furby, ya might hurt my feelin's :'( ;) :D

I could unnerstand people leaving logs in the drive, but, nobody local that knows I have the mill has anyway of movin them logs...they would of had to pay someone to move em...ya would think that they would have called me to move em...that's what makes this a mystery...I guess the butler did it :D :D :D
