Peter,

How far are you from Ithaca? My daugther should being leaving Cornnell that week end, so there is a chance that we may be in the area.

If he lives where I think he does it's the next county over, close very close....

Yep, "yous" oughta do it. Remember the picture rule. ;)

On the map it looks like it's around 20 miles from Ithaca to Cortland, then another 3-4 miles from Cortland to Homer.

So ya, close, very close!

I hope to see a bunch of you guys there!

Hey Pete, I have a good buddy that lives on Haights-Gulf road. Are you near this country?

petefrom bearswamp · January 12, 2012, 05:42:19 PM

I am About 28 miles from Cornell,
7-8 miles from Haights gulf.
Moose hunter, I am not far from rt 41-A.
Also I bought a bottle of rust reaper from you about 3 yrs ago.
chuck I can fire up the mill if not too many adult beverages have been consumed, if too many just a walk thru my woods and operation.
All of you within driving, boating, flying, walking, crawling distance try to plan to come.
At my good wife's suggestion our address is 2332 Bear Swamp Rd. Moravia NY 134118
Can google this, go on our forum site map to see approximately where we live or plug it into your GPS
Pete

If you will allow a logger from Massachusetts my wife and I are interested.

Count me in. Sounds like a good weekend to haul the camper down. I did some contract cutting for a mill out of Moravia called Brookside Lumber. Cut a couple tracts of timber in the McGraw area. Nice country down thru there.

How about PM ing me and maybe we can schedule a get to gether similar to the pig roast for those of us that are too far away to attend?

I'd like to point out that unless you live on the moon or somewhere else in the galaxy, there isn't any place on Earth that is "too far away to attend" the FF Pig Roast. Just ask our friends from down-under that have attended.

Magicman · January 15, 2012, 01:56:45 PM

I agree. I have hosted two similar events at our Cabin. In no way are they a substitute for or an alternative to the Pig Roast.

That being said, I think that local members and groups getting together is a wonderful thing and their goal should be to unite the Forestry Forum membership. I also feel that every member's goal should be to attend the Pig Roast.
