    Will be having our annual GTG again this spring and date is set ; April 22, 2017.
    Address: 3507 V Ave Chelsea, IA 52215.
    We usually have some some come on the day before and play a little, help finish a few set up projects or just talk saws, wood etc.
    Have room to tent, floor space in the heated shop and even some camper areas for overnighters.

    I'll check and see if that conflicts with the baseball schedule (probably). Barry from Ankeny, IA here.

    Ankeny? We're practically neighbors! Love to have you be able to make it.

    Wow, too bad our GTG's are on the same date. That no doubt will keep some from coming to one or the other. But, we are a considerable distance apart so it won't be too bad. Good luck to you.

    Got up a couple more logs to cut on this morning. A tall Red Oak leaning out over a hay field and a White Oak that blew over. [​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][​IMG]
