Ahoy Scout
Now you're just rubbing my nose in it!
I dropped and chopped an 80 ft oak this morning. I'm taking a 10 minute break and going out to drop another, bigger one (4th one in 3 days). The paving contractor will be here at 4. Once I have a level spot to work with, I'm making my first attempt at learning the mast raising system. If I never check in again, it probably didn't go well. Scout "Scotty" wrote in message ...

Thanks Charlie - good shape there - the closest overhead is other side of the house, 200 feet away. Scout |

I should've looked harder at bringing in a lumber company. I still have quite a few nice hunks of wood that need to go, might be an idea. Scout |

"Scout" wrote in message . .. Now you're just rubbing my nose in it! Nah, just wondered if you were ready to sail yet. Let me know if I can help with anything. Don't know what your schedule is like, but, if you can do it, The Great Chesapeake Bay Schooner Race is Thursday Oct. 12th, 1PM. They start just below the Bay Bridge. http://www.schoonerrace.org/ There is a really nice ramp (10 ramps) facility at Sandy Point State Park http://www.dnr.state.md.us/publiclan...n/sandypoint.h tml which is right next to the bridge. We launched there with the Mac. I plan on going, BUT I missed the last 2 years for one reason or another. -- Scott Vernon Plowville Pa _/)__/)_/)_ http://www.dnr.state.md.us/publiclan...n/sandypoint.h tml |

Also, my buddy got screwed out of $30k when his logger didn't pay him and then filed for bankruptcy, he's still fighting it ( the lawyer is getting most of the money now). Scotty |
