Sucks.

Our local stave mill burned and really hurt the local loggers.  Ive gotta haul a load 105 miles to match the price.. Or even come close.

Good luck to you guys Corley5.
Sounds like they are going to assess the damage and rebuild.
My bet is it will go quickly.  :)
Work hard. Be rewarded.

We've sold veneer logs to them.  Sometimes there are other buyers that pay more ;) ;D  The last year or so they've been buying basswood veneer logs which has been really nice ;D 8)  A good friend does most of their local veneer log trucking.  Another has hauled finished veneer to Seattle for shipment and would haul apples back to Meijer.  Lately he's been hauling veneer logs back from Ontario and Quebec for them.
