WORKING HARD

42 LOGS WAITING TO BECOME LUMBER.

CAN YOU BELIEVE THAT'S NOT THE BIGGEST LOG?

GETTING THE LOG READY TO CUT UP INTO LUMBER.

MS. DEBBIE, THE LADY THAT BOUGHT MY FATHER-IN-LAWS HOUSE, WANTED SOMEONE TO CUT HER PINE TREES FOR THE WOOD. SO TIM AND HIS BROTHER CUT THE TREES DOWN AND BROUGHT THEM ACROSS THE ROAD TO THE HOUSE. TIM'S BROTHER HAS A PORTABLE SAW MILL SO HERE THEY ARE HARD AT WORK. TIM WANTED ME TO POST THESE PICTURES TONIGHT SO I DID. I WAS GOING TO WAIT UNTIL THEY WERE ALL SAWED. IT WILL TAKE A FEW DAYS TO GET THEM ALL DONE SO I AGREED.

PRAYERS NEEDED

CANDY NEEDS YOUR PRAYERS FOR HER DAUGHTER HANNAH. SHE WAS DIAGNOSED WITH ATAXIA CEREBRAL PALSY RECENTLY. SHE HAD A FALL AT SCHOOL SO CANDY TOOK HER TO SEE HER DR.
