She said I wait till the nxt time I see ya I none I ask whats up .I come home .Guess what . The storm that suspended The world series knocked some trees down . Get home I have wood .25 /30 foot buy 8 10 inch logs And the whole 5 foot round center . Hammonton NJ has some big trees . I think I have one . What do I give him . We talked about bartering I m in the fish biz
Sorry so long The wood will be for next year I sure but I wanta keep this guy HAPPY AROUND If it wasnt for here i would not have thought of this thanks all JM
 
Hey from what I gathered you did pretty well there. I think, maybe. Oh geez now my head hurts, hey anyone got a beer in here?
 
Ask the girl at the tap room what her hubby likes and get him a gift card for Cabelas, Baileys, saw shop, etc.

If it turns out they like fish it sounds like you could factor that in too.
 
What's a tap room?

Sounds like a case of beer or a bottle on good whiskey would about do it. Maybe gift certificate to a local restaurant.
 
I had a tree service guy clearing a lot for a project I was working on. He was upset that he didn't know where to take the wood. When I told him he could take it to my house, 4 miles away, he was delighted. I bought the guys a couple of pizzas at lunchtime, then 2 thirty packs on Friday afternoon. They were delighted. I got like 4 tri-axle loads of Poplar. Not the best wood, but it was (almost) free.

I thought you were putting down your wife's cat for a second there.

Good score. I know what you mean- staying in good graces for someone like that. It's good country economics.
 

Get him a gift certificate to Illiano's Restaurant in Hammonton... They have the best Italian food!
Also let me know what night he is going to be there, so I can score some of that free wood!
