    Lol. If I bring the logs I won’t have room for all the saws.

    Worry not. I'm sure there will be plenty of saws there! Don't forget to take along those new dogs too.

    Kevin. Hopefully you have a good idea what people are bringing. What is still needed? I want to bring something but undecided as to what.

    Dang Kevin, I'd love to come up but it ain't in the cards this year. The engine in my truck just blew up last weekend, and I've gotta get her back on the road ASAP because with all this rain't were getting slammed with, the tree work is backing up......

    I'm still gonna try and make Walts, will you be there too?

    Sorry about that. Not sure anyone got online during the gtg. We had a good time. Lots and lots of saws. I think there were around 25-30 attending. Good group that are really into getting the most out of their saws. Saw some really nice ones there too. Sorry, I'm not too good at taking pictures but do have a few. I'll have to let Kevin or someone else do the names though.

    We had some time in Kevin's garage. It was loaded with saws and there was a lot of fixing and grinding and filing going on most of the time. A couple of the handy beer coolers on the side there.

    Had just finished cutting some wood at a neighbor's and came to Kevin's. Had to discuss things, don't you know. 101_0254.JPG 101_0257.JPG

    There's a little story about this saw but I'll let someone else tell about it. It's ugly but does a bang up job of cutting. 101_0262.JPG
