How many of do you think had grits for breakfast?   :D  I think the REAL action at the Sawlex is taking place at breakfast--that's where I'd like to see the webcam next year.   ;) :D :D

Seriously, the webcam is fun.   8)

Wish I was there!

Next year we'll have a wireless web cam (Jeff may have one for the Pig Roast) so we can wander around.

Shutting down the Webcam. Populus has to go home, so we're shutting down.  Saturday shootout pix are at Tree Trends

I eat my grits and went out and started sawing this morning.  Came in a minute to check out the web cam..


This is what I see. :o

Could you move the cam up some?  Please? ;D

Bibby, I was laughing over that webcam shot too. Looks like some well rounded fellas at Sawlex eh? Was there more than water in those bottles I wonder? ;D

Howdy all
Had a great time up there just to much information for this pea brain to take in.
Was great meeting everyone that I got to meet, feel like there were many I might have missed was just to much stuff to see and questions to ask to fit it all in.
Hope all make it home safe and sound.

Best of luck.

What saw I saw saw (great line Bibbyman). I have posted a description with pictures of the Saturday leg of the shootout at the Tree Trends Sawlex site . If anyone wants to add to my comments, you can do it here on on the Tree Trends comments. I'll get an account of Friday up tonight.
