I wanted to bring this thread to the top to let you all know again about Inspector's course coming up on the 14th. You are all welcome, we have plenty of room to put you up if you need it, and we are looking forward to meeting you.

I think Electric Al may even be coming to give a short class on kiln drying (if we can get him out of the excavator long enough) ;D. It should be an interesting day.

Patty, did you get the Forestry Forum Newsletter? Are you subscribed?

Patty · June 05, 2003, 01:20:33 PM

Hey Jeff-

Yes I subscribed last month, but I didn't get one :'(. Did I subscribe wrong or something?

Patty

PS. However, I have read the past letters...just hadn't gotten around to reading #10. Great work, by the way. ;)

I wish I could go, too :'(

Norm · June 06, 2003, 12:28:55 PM

I wish you could make it too ohsoloco, I brought in some white oak logs for Al to show us how to saw with. I thought with all this free help I'd make the most of it. ;D

ohsoloco · June 06, 2003, 12:55:17 PM

Norm, that's a nice jag of wood ya got there

If it wasn't such a drive from PA I'd be there. If only I had next Friday off....hmmmm, I do have a personal day I could use at work ;)

Norm · June 06, 2003, 04:26:46 PM

I wish that whole truck load was for me but I was only getting a couple of Mbf from him. They had some real nice butt logs on there but they wanted too much money for em and I would have had to split them with a chainsaw first.

sawwood · June 06, 2003, 05:46:49 PM

WOW Norm thats some good looking logs, Now I am
going to have some sleeples nights till the 14. I will bring
my gloves and head set so i can help out. Just love to
be out doing this kind of work.

be doing Saterday?

Jeff · June 10, 2003, 07:02:46 PM

Ya'll learn a lot and come back and teach me sumpthin.

Hey, is Weekend Sawyer going to make the drive out there?

inspectorwoody · June 10, 2003, 09:03:48 PM

Weekend sawyer won't be able to make it due to his bossman

Jeff · June 10, 2003, 09:04:57 PM

George Dubbya?

Norm · June 11, 2003, 05:19:52 AM

One of the neat things about the FF is I get to talk with people all over the USA and world and learn about things like long lining and Vegamite, but it's too bad we all live so far apart. Makes getting together harder for things like this weekend.

I'll call George W, (Patty knows him personally just ask her) ;D and see if he can't bring weekend sawyer over on Air Force 1.

ohsoloco · June 11, 2003, 10:31:07 AM

Tell him to stop and pick me up on the way ;) I would really like to go, but that 1800 mile round trip doesn't sound that great :-/

Jeff · June 11, 2003, 01:50:39 PM

well if hes picking those guys up he might as well stop here. I can't go but I can give you all a plate of food. We are roasting a pig for Stacy's graduation open house.

inspectorwoody · June 11, 2003, 02:37:12 PM

I smell bacon, I smell pork, watch out piggy I got a fork ;D :D

inspectorwoody · June 11, 2003, 09:45:29 PM

Sawwood

Well, we will meet and greet and bs for a bit and than when ya'll want to hit the books we will start talking about inspection, grade out some lumber, discuss any questions etc. and hopefully get a good start on things by the time Al gets up there and than we can go into sawing and kiln drying with him.

Sound good?

Any final requests??

Steve_M · June 12, 2003, 10:40:15 AM

Inspector

I am trying to arange to be there Saturday. What time are you starting and will you be at the house or in town at the building?

Steve

sawwood · June 12, 2003, 11:14:04 AM

Sounds good to me Inspector. I hope to be there by
8:30.

Sawwood

Norm · June 12, 2003, 11:23:22 AM

We're going to start at 11:00AM over at the office, you really can't call Bangor a town as there is only 5 or 6 houses there. As my dad used to say don't blink or you'll miss it and drive right by. :D

If you get here early come over to the house but let me warn you if you get here too early you may get the chance to see me in my underwear,

not a pretty sight I guarantee ya.

sawwood · June 12, 2003, 02:57:25 PM

Norm_F is there a place close that a guy can git Breffast,
Ham,Eggs ? O and Coffee. The 307 3rd st is that you
office or house. Just comb your hair and you will look
fine.
