Drawings

[sotc]

Spent thanksgiving day and night at a historic lodge my good friends own. They bought it along with about 2 sections of land and paid for it with the logs about 20 years ago. Anyway, I've always enjoyed these prints so I took some pictures to share. Might just have to order some myself!

And maybe a glimpse of less than half the dessert at a loggers thanksgiving!

After breakfast the next day..

Cool. 'Marking the spar' is my favorite.

 

[Fiddler]

Nice drawing! I have an old friend who does pencil sketches of Great Lakes lighthouses...very talented.

I'm kinda partial to "Partners".

 

[MasterBlaster]

Very nice!!! Awesome skill!

I didn't take a picture of that one. I think they have every print at the lodge. My favorite is "pitch"

 

[sotc]

I guess I did, was thinking I skipped it

 

[squisher]

Geez, not even 40 yet and you're already losing it.

 

[sotc]

Shoot, I lost it years ago! I told someone a few weeks ago that my secretary keeps my brain in a jar on her desk. I'm always calling and asking something!

They got a great deal on the land it sounds like! 1280 acres is nothing to sneeze at!

It was a lot of logging but still a great deal!

Mick, I liked it!

How much

The drawings are real nice. I like the old timer with axes and saws. Interesting contraption the under cutter was using, Ive never seen one of those, were they common back in the day?

Idk Cory, I'd expect any tool that made it easier to under buck with a cross cut would be popular, good eye

 

[sotc]

Mick, you'll need a little more detail before I buy!

 

[Mick!]

I only sell to the rich, and the rich in spirit! So none of youse.

 

[cory]

Ok, that does it. I want the original. How much.

using a crosscut with and ax for an 'underbuck'.

I've heard that the ax will have a groove worn in it from the saw, and as such, you can see if it has been used for that purpose.

What's the name of the lodge, Willie?

 

[sotc]

Oak Bar, closest town is Klamath River. Not sure if this google link will work or not. There is no web site i'm aware of but they are sort of keeping a Facebook Page

[Burnham]

Thank you, sir. I'll be looking into it, we like these sorts of places to hunt down.

 

[sotc]

It's not open to the public but I could likely arrange a walk through with enough notice.

There was a town called Oak Bar there first. A couple banking families had a marriage between them and they bought up the town, knocked it down and built the lodge. This was during prohibition so it was a great place to have a drinking party in the day. Some neat history of all that still there

 

[Burnham]

Ahhh...well, thanks for the offer, Willie. A lodge, but not open to the public? So how does that work?
