Well with Spring being around the corner I'm gonna post this up and start planning. Leon and I have talked here and there about it during the winter months and now it's time to nail down some plans. SO, Anyone that's interested in coming let know so I can prepare. I try to do a bond fire or bbq to fill our hungry stomachs after all the cutting. Usually hotdogs but I'm thinking burgers are in order this year. I'm thinking of planning this GTG in May as the rains here in Oregon tend to be drawn out until then and that'd give me plenty of time to have caught up with the spring cleaning madness here on the property and at work. I know Leon will come for sure and a few buddies of mine that aren't on here so that'd be at least 5 of us. The gtg would be held on a Saturday. Which Saturday I'm not sure yet, but one that I have off from work. Rowdy, would May be a good month for you to make it down from the north? Anyone here is more than welcome to come! I don't have a large house so ya'll would be camping in my field or grabbing a hotel for the night if you come long distance. lol I'd like to find out who's serious about showing up for sure. Let's get this rollin folks! Raisin Hell with the Neighbors 3rd GTG is under way! 028 by TJ McCauley, on Flickr

I have been waiting for this for quite some time! As long as its a Saturday, I should be open anytime in May, the only trip I have planned is in late June / Early July. I agree May sounds like a good month, should be able to get some nice weather. I think it’d be best to stay away from Memorial Day weekend (the 25th), as the roads will likely be pretty crowded that weekend. It’s not too far from my place, so I’ll pry just make a day trip out of it, but keep me posted. Will grab at least a few of the saws to show off

What is the approximate location going to be? I'll try to drive down from Eugene with some old Homies in tow. I have to travel back to WA DC in May, but I hope I can attend. Time to get the old gear drives spiffed up and tuned just in case.

Saturday the same....leave at 6:20 but I'm back around 2:45. One of these times for sure though unless Saturday you happen to pass through in the evening.

Suppose I could smuggle a super 2100 on an airplane?? 🤔 Remove the fuel and oil and find a airline approved golf club bag. You might have to leave the 48" bar for it at home.
