    Between the three properties, I would guess 15 cord. Biggest thing was all the trimming and removal of nuisance and hazard trees and limbs at the Ebersole center. Time and labor intensive, but such a huge improvement for them.

    Wow, way to go guys! I really wish I could've been there this year again. It was definitely my plan to get this MI gtg, but life threw a few curve balls my way and my plans got changed so many times with the other things aside from FHC, so I had to pivot. Next year I'll be back!

    A rebuild.
    Getting some warps and cracks. Plan is to drop it off June 5th and go to Maine for a week. Stay at my cousins place, ride some trails on the sxs. Pick it up June 11 on the way back.

    It’s not a lack of money or want to my friends
    Lack of physical ability and health conditions..

    my beautiful bride and I are discussing it now for next year

    Hey, that's important!
    Eric's GTG documentation (and company) have been missed in recent years!
