    So every year i throw a winter solstice party, and this year its going to include some big wood for chainsawing. This will be very informal and obviously doing something like this in the winter is a bit of a crapshoot but i thought id post it anyway. The party usually consists of food, beer (after chainsawing of course :cheers:)and a tremendous bonfire. I know i dont have tons of posts on here, spend a lot of time on that other site...i know there are at least a few guys on here in northern mi that may be up for something. im in Frankfort btw. The invitation is open to anyone obviously, though i expect that most people wont want a big road trip in the winter. Anyway, **** gets real on dec 19th. more posts to come as i continue to gather some big wood for cookie making.

    Been up your way many times mister, I've taken some nice perch out of Crystal, and some monster googly eyed rock bass.
    Little/Big Glen is really good for perch as well, although the secret is out on that one I'm afraid.

    Beautiful area up there, most don't realize what they're missing.

    Sounds like a great time. Good on ya for putting it on.

    I disagree. Wish I could join. Being the same date as my anniversary it could be my divorce anniversary. Lol. Hope you have a good time and turn out. GTG's are a good time.

    OP Is this one up near UP or not as far north like Fife Lake where the Helsel's live or Cadillac near Big Dave Nieger?

    I hope you have a good turn out! Until the end of the year, we are working like crazy. Because of vacations the last few weeks, I will be working 12 hrs every day until the new year, with Christmas day being the only day off.

    Thanks!! It sucks, but being busy this time of year is good for the Steel business (normally slow as all get out! )

    We may be having a GTG in lower Michigan sometime next year? Still unsure of the date. But Backwoods Savage has been throwing the idea around.
