    Good on you Dave!! She loved that race!

    Looks like it was better than last year (hard to believe), but by the pics and videos? I'm sure it was!

    Seen some faces that wanted to come last year. Wish I could've been there!

    I had a Grad party yesterday and a Wedding today. Wish I could've been there!

    Always fun to see the pics of the many GTG events. Looking at your pics here Scotty Overkill... I wondered if something could be done with all of those cookies left over afterward. With every GTG having at least one firepit (probably many) going... why couldn't a large Firewood Hoarders Club branding iron be something to have created and then used on as many of those cookies as needed... making them into small signs for the guys to take home. Just a thought, and you've prolly already got one. Here's a Pa company link... or, make yer own?

    He is very unassuming and laid back till the saw fires then it's all business. He has some wicked saws and gave me advice on my 288 that I play around with including one of his chains. Great guy for sure.

    Wise choice for lessons. Very sharp/fast chains (his own), fast saws, smooth operator. If you can beat him, you have done something.

    Good idea Stinny. Just a thought here but doesn't Pallet Pete have one that fishingpol made?

    Here is one cookie that was left at our GTG.

    The iron is a bit on the small side, made for drink coasters.
