    AC and Pete, once again I offer my humble apology. Oh how I wanted to be there and I even seriously considered driving over in my car around mid-day. When I said something, my wife said she expected that but there just was no way this body was going to be able to do it. Doubt I could have even taken the driving but at least I was there in spirit.

    And what can we say about all the good men helping put a less fortunate one. It really does make me happy though knowing his transplant is coming along good. Thanks fellas.

    That's a good one Ray. Notice that I refrained from mentioning the milk crate that the crew did without. ;lol

    LOL I hear that Dennis think they needed a reclining milk crate with Corinthian leather! Great to see Pete and AC help out like they did and I know you would if you could too Dennis! I know you've helped others in the past and others know as well so keep smiling! :)

    On the knees is terrible for sure. And to think, some even do it standing up but they have to have a better bender than I have. Just can't imagine bending over for hours... You should have suggested cutting a round the right height.

    Ok OK, enough with the crate, my bad I forgot it. I cut em a couple nice rounds for chairs, but they were pretty focused on getting everything split. You should've seen those guys working those splitters, they busted it hard all day. I think that despite being on a saw for about 6 hrs. straight, I had the easier work, those boys humped it hard all day long. At least I got to take breaks for fuel & fresh chains. A C
