If you're man enough to bring it I will saw it. There was some that thought we should cut something easier than the pecan we did last year. However we got that one done.

     I believe I'm #41, but don't quote me on that. (I definitely be there, but the my actual number in the lineup is iffy.)

I have reservations at the Hampton inn. Not the cheapest but in my limited travels have always found them to be clean and friendly.
Planned route is 15 - 81 - 77 - 20. It will just be me in the car so if anyone wants to share fuel costs I would be willing to share the ride. Driving on Thursday, return Sunday.

To the vehicle you will be driving apply some STUDENT DRIVER stickers.
The dentier and rustier the vehicle, the better.
Hope to see you there.

   What time do the events start on the first day? I need to know whether to come the night before or whether driving from Charlotte that morning would be pushing it.

We will start around 9:00 on Friday giving some that are still traveling a little more time to get here. Saturday we will start around 8:00 as folks are here already. Lots of folks show up on Thursday afternoon and pitch in putting the finishing touches on everything that I haven't gotten to. Some get here early on each of the other days to help getting things set up that are needed. We aren't very regimented. If something takes a little longer to get finished then it does. If we get done early then there is more time for questions and such. One of the things that is good about this is if someone is having trouble grasping something then there is no reason we can't slow down until everyone gets it. Other times they get with the instructor latter in the day or at lunch and corner them until they get it. Some of the best sharing is around the table, bon fires, or on the porch.

Lee we look forward to meeting you. When you say your "guys" are you referring to your family or employs?

Sadly this year I will not be able to make it, I'm just too tied up here to get away. I hope everyone has a good time and learns something.

This isn't designed to teach an entire crew. It is more of a teach the teacher type of thing. We teach and share with you and then you take that knowledge and teach your guys.

I have been wanting to attend for a few years now.  My mill has just over 30 hours on it, so maybe I can learn something to get things going.

I will be bringing my wife.  This should make #50/51.  We will be driving from Freeport, Michigan.  Looking forward to meeting everyone!


We need to get away for once... this should be fun!

After speaking with Lynn I'm committed to making the 3500 mile journey NEXT year!  Wish I could this year but it just won't work!

Enjoy and I looking forward to NEXT year!

Sometimes I feel that employees are like little children.  When they hear it from a stranger it carries more weight than if it comes from parents or people that they are constantly around.
