    The sign made it to the GTG. I won't steal the thunder of who now has it.

    The gun club president thanked FHC for the amount of wood processed.

    He announced that while the club will use most of the wood, that they will be starting a wood ministry. Which means they'll decide 2 needy households which will receive a dump truck full of wood, as a donation. Well done!

    What a great weekend! It's like Christmas time to me. Love seeing all my extended firewood family at these GTG's! Thanks to all of you who made it....for your friendship, fellowship, and donation of hard work and time, and for the amazing prizes you all donate and create for the raffle. Just an outstanding group of human beings here at FHC! Love you all!

    I think you deserve a little credit here yourself. You put a lot of time and effort into this yourself and without that we would not have what we do so "Thank You".
    Wished I could have made it out, but my work schedules have been off the charts lately.
    Thanks again for all you have done to make FHC what it is!!

    Glad to see everyone had a great time. We had other obligations this weekend and weren't able to get out there for this year's great GTG. Next year we're hoping to make it out that way.

    Definitely enjoying the pix...

    Truckaa and myself got back home just before 3pm. No issues. I'm happy to report the apple sausage arrived, unscathed. The only traffic we ran into was at the CT MA border. just lots of volume.

    It was a pleasure to meet and shake hands with everyone.

    I'd like to echo buzz-saw sentiments. Thanks to Scotty for throwing a fine FHC party.

    P.S. My recliner feels good!!

    Made it home safe , we had a leisurely trip made several stops. A big Thank You to Scotty , Joe , and the gun club. It sure was good to see old friends and make new ones. It is 95 degrees outside so Robin and I decided to wait till the sun goes down to unpack. I think it might be nap time.
