Good work guys.  I was feeling that I wanted to come help, but the 1500mi or so trip sent me back to reality.  I was presented with an opportunity, however, and acted on it.  So you are not only helping this family, but inspiring others as well.

As I kept up on this thread over the past several weeks, the pictures and insight of the actual job getting started are exciting to see.  I am happy for and jealous of all of you at the same time.  What a great project to be a part of!  We should label the one picture the "Texas Magnificent Seven".  Congrats and well wishes to you all in this wonderful gift for a fellow FF member in a time of need.  You should all be very proud.  Bravo!!!   :)

The thing I keep asking myself is, in that last picture, has Stacy just turned the cant, or is she about to become a bonafide professional sawyer by trying to saw through the side stop :D :D.

I think we should change that from the "Texas Magnificent Seven" to the "Forestry Forum Magnificent Seven".......

When I first saw her on the Op Seat, the first thing I did was checked the clearance and noticed the log stop then realized it was a photo-op in the making!  ;)
