    I'm not sure exactly what will be involved but I am willing to bet I will love it and the rest of my family will be bored.

    I think we are going to try to go. Is there a gate fee for the fair?

    I don't think so, there was nothing on the flier that came in the mail, didn't see anything on the website either.

    Should be a good time. The Stihl lumber jack competition came through the area a couple weeks back and I hadnt heard anything about it until it was almost over:mad: They had two days of splitting, chopping, climbing, log rolls and who knows what else. Everytime they come through I manage to miss it oh well maybe next year. I hope yall have a good time.

    I wish! Didn't get selected but I did get to do some cross cutting with the old lady. Video of that and the kids log rolling and cross cutting will be going up by the end of the weekend.

    Same thing happens to me at the fairs in the fall. I go watch everything wood and my wife runs the other way. We meet in the middle at the horse pulls.
    Grizz, nice shot with the saw in hand.
