Cutting
Well the crew has surveyed and is getting ready to move into the cutting position. Wood cutting that is, as many know, some of the Williams land were sold. Cutting was completed on the 180 lot and now the forwarders and hand crews are set to cut the Bobcat Rd lot before moving down the road to Amherset, they plan on select cuts as house lots are being considered in the five year plan. Lets hope the weather holds off and the road stays in good shape.
Carolyn Baker
While I was away in the Allagash we lost a dear friend, Carolyn Baker. My heart goes out to her and her family. I have known Carolyn since I was a youngin as her husband worked with "johnny" at the Water District and the pond. We shared many laughs over the years and will be strongly remembered.
