Sawmill update

It has been one thing after another with this darn sawmill. It has been burning up barrings for a few months now, along with belts. It just wasn't running normal and then finally one of the inner wheels all but locked up throwing the belt and blades off every time Perry made a swipe down a log. All of this made for a difficult and time-consuming cutting time. Thankfully when Perry called and told Woodland Mills what was going on, they gladly shipped a whole new wheel and a pack of barrings free of charge. He's finally back up and cutting again and things are starting to move around here again.
Pictured here is the wood drying shed he built across from the sawmill barn. It's nice for extra firewood storage as well!



Perry and the girls knocked down the old sawmill barn and are prepping for the new one a little further back. It'll give them a lot more room to move logs around.
