As we walk around the yards we are apt to hear and see most
anything. Some days we see all sorts of gentlemen and ladies and by
the looks of things some are apt to be lovers or newlyweds, walking
around looking things over, seeing all sorts of machinery from
small to monster. Now if you strike the right day you can get a
ride on one of the old steamers that is being fired for some
going away on a lowboy trailer, all fired up and painted to
original color, as new. Boy was it a dandy, and run like a
charm.
If you get there and walk past the shop, and hear something from
human voice to a lion roar, you can guess Joe is mad about
something but don’t let it scare you, it soon blows over. If
you happen to know Joe you know what I mean.
The yards are being cleaned up over the winter, especially
around the sawmill that had, been set up for the reunion, a few
logs were there to be sawed and if you want to know about sparks
flying from the saw from getting too close -to the head blocks, see
Amos and ask him.
