You forgot to mention that my equipment was bigger than yours...

Although I was pretty hard at work, I did notice Dave Heck quite closely
inspecting the hydraulics on the Kubota to see if they would be useful
for extracting wisdom teeth.  

I saw Don Fitterer proudly showing off his equipment.  he was bragging
that it would start with only one pull and that it would really rev up
with just one twitch of the finger.  I did notice that it required
frequent refueling and lubrication.  His chain saw was working pretty
well though.

	The 3 S's training clinic was held yesterday at the Swandrome.
Any fears 
about the weather forecast were cleared up Friday night when the Prez 
announced that he would be coming to help with the work. As promised,
the 
weather was absolutely fabulous. I almost feel guilty keeping some
people 
off their bikes on such a beautiful day, that may turn out to have been
the 
best bonus-day of the entire fall. ("almost feel guilty", not 
quite.....)  The turnout was amazing, with "the regulars" from the FLCC
and 
Tuesday nighters, and a remarkable turnout from the CU Nordic ski team.
I'm 
afraid I don't even know the names of everybody who showed ! But I am 
grateful to each of you who gave of your time and energy, especially
some 
of whom are probably feeling a little stiff and sore today after running

chainsaws and swinging splitting axes, and dragging logs out of the
woods. 
It was the most efficient bunch we have ever had, with teams working at 
every station ensuring a smooth flow of wood from log-length to stacked,

stove-sized pieces for about 3 hours. As far as I could tell, there was
no 
bloodletting, no organ donations or limb-removals. There are still the
same 
number of dogs we started out with, and we never even got the tractor
stuck 
in the woods ! You can't ask for much more than that.
	Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.

Glenn
