Hey RMay and welcome,

We're in S. Mo. and got the flier from WM.  Didn't go.

We try to go to the wood industry show (sometimes in Springfield and sometimes in Cape G. Mo.)  I like it because there is machinery of all sorts from all different companies.

I am anxious to see those big Woodmizers.

Do you have a WM?  Tell us a little about your operation.

Jeff,
I wish.  One of our favorite vacations is through that country over to Superior,  along the N. shore of Superior and back across the Mackinaw Bridge.
 Hope to do that next summer. The last time we went we went to the Connor Company's Logging Museum and Railroad in N. Wisc.  That's my kind of stuff.

RMay,
We have an LT40 also.  You will fit right in with this bunch.

  Well you try to keep them happy south of the River and I will take care of the north side.  You need to watch Joey and keep him on his side of the border.
 As big as Texas is he comes to Arkansas every chance he gets to saw.
  My SeaArk boat came from down there.

I will add it.

The sawdust and wood chips will be flying at this year's Lake State's Logging Congress in Madison, WI. We will again be holding the Lumberjack Competitions, where experts will compete in a series of events for a cash purse of nearly $5,000.

Besides the Lumberjack Competitions, visitors to the Logging Congress can walk the sprawling exhibition grounds to see fantastic displays of today's newest technology in logging equipment featured by more than 250 exhibitors. Other featured events include Prentice loader contests, pulpwood loading contests, and an industry load competition, with trophies and cash prizes to all contest winners. Equipment exhibits will include feller bunchers, forwarders, chain saws, wood splitters, skidders, logging trucks, bulldozers, sawmilling equipment, log lifts, log loaders and hydraulic components. Other exhibits will include chain saw sculpturing, a log grading short course, plus a wide variety of offerings from the many indoor exhibits.

This is a landmark year for the Lake States Logging Congress. This is the first time in Logging Congress History that the show will be held in the State's capitol of Madison, Wisconsin. The Alliant Energy Center offers a state of the art facility that is second to none. With one hundred thousand square feet of indoor open span exhibit space, along with meeting rooms, parking and an expansive outdoor exhibit area as well.

While in the Greater Madison Area, not only will you see a fantastic Congress; you will also be able to enjoy the sights and sounds of the city. Some of the many things available to you in Madison would be a stroll down the State Street Pedestrian mall, which boasts dozens of shops and restaurants; visit the Madison Area Zoo; the State Capitol; pick from one of 15 area golf courses to enjoy, tour the University of Wisconsin Campus, and on Saturday mornings you can visit the farmer's market on the square. You could also take in the beautiful Wisconsin Dells, just a short drive from Madison, or House on the Rock, located in Spring Green, WI.
