Yeah, this is not an outdoor activity that I partake in, but it was pretty interesting to see an Amish Sawmill in operation. So I wanted to share. My parent's neighbors hired the Amish to clear some trees on their property. Dad and I rode the golf cart out back to the edge of the property line to view the setup. They're up working around 6am, lunch at 10:30, quitting time at 2. The work horses stay on the property for the 3 month duration of the project. They kind of remind me of the Budweiser Clydesdale horses, but hauling logs instead of beer.

ReplyDeletewhere's that one that's sticking his tongue out? (the horse I mean)
ReplyDeleteHi Wendy, sure enjoy all your blog postings. Do all the outdoor stuff you can while you can. Wish I could hike and run rivers like back in the day. I miss being out in nature. Your pictures are great too. I look forward to checking in on your site every so often to see what's new. That must be some land clearing project if they're going to be there three months.
ReplyDeleteHey Pam - Glad you like the posts. Well 40 is not too far off so I'm trying to stay active! Next visit up North, will have to get Mom out of the house and bring her to visit you. Would be good to see you.
ReplyDeleteDo you have the contact information of the Amish Sawmill?
ReplyDeleteDo you mind if iI use a few of these images? I sell Amish made furniture and I have not come across images these nice; I'd like to print a few for my office and website...I'm headed there in November, but it's not that pretty for photos that time of year...thanks
ReplyDeleteI need a Amish person to make me shutters that go beside my windows outside
