If it said "Amish chick's choice" on the box you would be right. He'd probably buy half of them.

I would like to truly thank everyone from the bottom of my heart. The GTG was yet another success, great food, great friends and good stories told!
I haven't gotten a chance to talk to Rick to see how much wood that we got processed but I am gonna say it was pretty close to last year.

I'll check with him tomorrow, me and Scotty are going back after work tomorrow to finish the clean up and make sure everything is back in order.

Here's the group picture.
