Hello all,

We had a big storm front whip through yesterday and it took out a lot
of trees in the area.

Wish we'd have gotten some rain out of that one. Watched it break up before
it passed Ironwood.

That sucks... We did get quite a bit, and the lawn really needed it.
It's been a dry month so far.

The bass will turn brown - not an attractive brown just _brown_ - in the log
on its rapid way to dust. End of next summer the log will be a loss even if
you give it some elevation. It's plain vanilla, all the way through,
otherwise. If you've wanted to do some coloring or pyrography, well, it'll
take some to make the bass look good.

Sounds like I'd better get it turned right away... maybe I'll make
some bowls and vases for the wife to do her pyrography on. Might make
some chess men, too.

The yellow birch is a prize worth carrying.

Yep, hope they'll let me have it!
