I thought it was General Sherman that marched through Atlanta....

He was the original--but he had boring black boots--not like us fashionable folf:

So in reading your post I'm not sure when you're coming. Is it a safe bet that you'll rest up after the party beverages Friday night and be heading our way Saturday morning? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
|
Too bad I don't still have my purple boots! Then I could give you a run for your money. I guess I am not as cool as I once was. So did you become cool again in your older age or did Alzheimer's set in?

Schedule: Friday morning, pick up BS in Valdosta Drive all afternoon Arrive Atlanta in time for eats and said beverages Pimp wood in the parking lot Saturday morning in Atlanta Lunch Take off for Charlotte with stops for Greenville and Lancaster folk Saturday afternoon Eats n Charlotte Deal goods Sunday morning in spot to be determined. Snatch more goods at sawmillnc and turn around. |

Crap! I hate to say this but as much as I wanted to take advantage of this wood haul it looks like you might as well take off my order to make room for somebody else in Atlanta. Like I told you in a couple of PM's I'm out of town on Saturday. I had planned to meet up on friday but that is not going to fit your schedule on this run. I'll just have to wait for the next time your hauling lumber through town. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
|
Bones, Got any room on your trip back from Sawmillnc? And if so which route are you taking, anywhere close to me like I95? O r do I need to wait and be on the next load. Thanks, Brian |

No problem; might be a bit overloaded as it is

Going back down 75. Pigsicle III is in a few weeks, and that's I-95. |

Terry - I could get your wood for you and hold it for you if no one else can. I live in Athens so it would be a bit of a drive, but its closer than gainesville. And if you change your mind that just leaves more wood for me ![]() I just realized something. I am becoming a wood whore and Bones is a wood pimp...I dont like where this is going
|
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
|
I ordered about 200bf from Kyle. See prior post re: wood whore
|
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
|
Let me add just one thing. Check the air pressure in the tires. We don't need Gillie type news from middle Georgia.
|
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
|
Thanks Bones. I'll keep an eye out for Pigsicle III!! Brian |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||

Hope he made room for the beer!
|
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
|
200 board feet of what?? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
|
Thanks for the concern. Uh, what initial pressure, 2 psi, 2000 psi?? Not wanting to be Gillie type folks want to know

If it's walnut, you can lighten my load somewhat. |
||||||||

Was actually talking about wood whore/pimp and meeting alone
|

Yes it is primarily walnut. Oh, I missed that. Good point
|
||||||||
|
|

I will refund. I need every pound off I can get.

Yeah, I've been gaining weight to. Guess too much beer and tv. Guess I better get the treadmill out to run the lathe . Wait, you were talking about needing to lose weight!Brian |

Thanks for the offer to pick it up but I wouldn't want you to get the rep of a wood pimp. I don't see me getting to Athens any time soon so I'll just wait for the next wood haul.
Thanks for the offer. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||

Well, I got the neighbor with the pick-up to help me out. Only cost me a round of golf (and maybe some of the 4/4) . At least I'll get a round in for him to collect.What time does the Pimpin begin? |

"Pimp wood in the parking lot Saturday morning in Atlanta Lunch Take off for Charlotte with stops for Greenville and Lancaster folk Saturday afternoon" I'll be leaving for work about 20 minutes to 4. If your lunch is really leisurely or traffic holds you up, then I'll have to send a proxy to pick up the goods. Can't wait to get it all though. So I hope you make good time and I can thank you personally. Didn't realize originally that you were meeting other folks in the upstate. What exit were you planning on? The Pelham Rd exit is one or two before the GSP airport exit coming from the South. I think I may have said AFTER the airport by error in a previous message. I live in spitting distance of the exit and could meet you in a parking lot just off the exit on a moment's notice. Let me know if you are planning somewhere else to meet. Thanks, Matthew |

Bones, How do you go to Mt Holly ? 85 to 16 north or do you get off 85 somewhere before 16 ? The 485 beltline now has an exit before the 16 exit and I think you can take it north a ways to Holly. I can meet you anywhere at 85 and whatever exit you take to Mt holly. Late Sat or Sunday morning. I have a guy coming by Sat. at 2pm for an hour or so but after that I'm free. Brian - N2CMD |

Forget the concerns in my last post about meeting you by 20 till 4 on Saturday. I was having a brain fart. I'm working at 4PM on Friday, 7PM on Saturday. Since you're coming my way Saturday we should be fine.
|
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
|
IF there is a problem, I'll be glad to kick the wood and bandsaw onto the side of the road. They should be fine till you get there.

Bones, You bumped me from the last trip - but do not see my order on this one.....(I did paypal you the deposit) Also never heard a reply to my email asking if you had some 5/4 walnut (30bf) available and if so for how much? Thx, ssharp |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
|
If no one else gets wood on the Chattanooga run, you will. No 5/4 walnut, but I will be glad to sell you some of my private stash: 4/4 and 8/4 |
