towing lumber from my mill out to the wharf

anyone else done the towing this way????



sprucebunny

Where there's a will....there's a way ;D
Around Mt. Desert Island in Maine they have a barge they can load dump trucks and stuff onto and push it out to the islands where they land on the beach and sometimes put down planks to drive stuff off.

The salt water probably acts as a preservative ???

I got a picture of the small barge in Norteast Harbour. ...... Probably more than you need, Paul.
Acadia is pretty when the weather is nice but not that impressive in the fog . However , I think the forest is even better in the fog.

I know its not in the states but closest place i like to visit other than the washington coast which is getting crowded and owned by refineries.  In tofino i have never seen so many salmon in my life.

Yes, it's a nice place, very pretty to visit, but the road from the main highway through Port Alberni to Tofino is becoming quite crowded and will likely become more crowded in the years ahead.  It was being improved some this year (June, 2005) but it needs a lot more to keep up with the increasing traffic.
I eat a high-fiber diet.  Lots of sawdust!

Me too Swamp. I never get tired of it.. How long did they wait for the fog to clear for that picture?
