Well I think its about my turn to put something out there. This is a duplicate of one I have in my collection and they are getting pretty hard to come by. I hope someone likes this fellow as much as I do.

I have always been curious about these liquor decanters . I know they are prized to collectors and such but do they come filled and capped off and like aged in the decanter ? Is there a way to unscrew a cork or something so I could fill it up ? That looks like a very nice collectable for sure

Buck, the head head is the stopper.

There is room (when I do some housecleaning and storing of JD models) on this cherry mantle for a lumber jack decanter. ;D

Qweaver · June 02, 2006, 08:57:03 PM

Well Beenthere, It might look good on your mantle but in will be much loved setting in my cabin filled with fine W.Va mountain dew. 8)

UNCLEBUCK · June 03, 2006, 12:06:26 AM

Well I think the logger would look good standing next to the honored green and yellow tractors ;D

W.Va mountain dew ??? is that anything like North Dakota water 8)

Sure looks like a addicting hobby and fun

Corley5 · June 04, 2006, 04:27:11 PM

UNCLEBUCK · June 05, 2006, 01:21:32 AM

That logger is riding the floom , that is so cool !

beenthere · June 05, 2006, 09:16:06 AM

Ya, he looks like the guys who rode logs down the Wisconsin River during the logging days, and fits some of the logging lore and tales told of the stop-over at the Wisconsin Dells, on the way to the Mississippi River.
He's dressed a bit warm for GA, don't cha think?

sandmar · June 05, 2006, 10:00:51 AM

nah beenthere......dressing in long sleeves and boots helps keep the chiggers off and Jeff can tell you that you don't wanna wear pine rosin on your hide either.He will be fine in GA ;D

He will great in my cabin!

Jeff · June 05, 2006, 04:32:43 PM

I got chiggers when I was at Noble's. I'll take black flies any time rather then those things!

Jeff · June 05, 2006, 04:35:21 PM

Hey! I just noticed that the auction was over! Looks like the logger is heading west!

Thanks everyone!

Thank you for the donation from your Decanter collection. I'll be in touch about "payin up".

Feel just a little bad that some were outbid, but will be happy to put in on the cherry mantle.

Burlkraft stopped by this afternoon, and we had a good visit. So much to talk about and so little time. He came while a few quilters were having a quilting party. We crashed it.

Burlkraft · June 05, 2006, 06:05:19 PM

BT, Ya got it 8) 8) 8) 8)

Now ya gotta move a couple of them green machines on the mantle to make room.

Thanks for the hospitality today. I got my 5 yards of dirt and got through Madison before the beltline became a parking lot ;D ;D ;D

sandmar · June 05, 2006, 08:03:29 PM
