Good new on creating a new bigger-better than ever log pile without getting BEAR mad at anyone! There is construction happening along the E side of Hiway 169 just N of I-694 by my office. There have been 7 houses here in the midst on an industrial park for years. Some of the lots are being purchased and the houses moved to make room for a parking lot. Lots of big-nice trees on the properties that are going to come down sometime in May-June? and I have gained permission for the UMTA to have first dibs if we do the work in Mar-April.  So with the willingness of all the UMTA Paul Bunyans to step up to do some loggin operations and a well planned one day loading/hauling effort, we can have a significant amount of good size logs!!  More to Come.
