PAST Iowa GTG 2018

[Ronaldo]

Lots of people show up usually? Just wondering in case of having to book early for motel or if there are any local tent sites to camp at I can do that also.

Should be plenty of rooms available in Tama area for the last weekend in April. We have plenty of space for camping and tents, too.

Ok, just wondering I have a large tent and was wanting to know how people set the gtg’s up and if they are good to bring my wife and kids too. Have 8 and 11 year old boys and a 13 year old daughter. My daughter probably won’t want to go but the boys might. Staying in tent doesn’t bother kids they like to camp and my boys like to tear saws apart in shop and learn how they work from me.

There will be room for your tent.

Just know that it will most likely be raining. LOL

A very family friendly event.

I talked with my wife and I’m thinking about an 80% chance we’ll be there.

Ok was just wondering is all not that it’s that important. Maybe deets and tree monkey will be there. Not that I have saws that will run with theirs, the hybrid I built does ok but not probably going to run with one built people that do a lot of them.

Scott came last year
Don’t think Deets has been here
Most don’t have saws that will but some do
I think 3 yrs ago there were 70 some that came and I had one of the kids count saws, 369 saws if I remember correctly [emoji50]

Well I’m trying to decide what will fit and what I should bring. Any old real big stuff like my 090 show up?

Gtg on Arbor Day, did you realize it was kinda funny. Supposed to plant trees and we’ll be cutting them up. My wife saw the pile of wood and said that one looks like it would make nice slabs.

She was teasing saying I need to bring the mill.

I know she just kidding but she likes to see the slabs when I make them and what I build. Problem is she wants to keep it all when done.
