Hate I missed it. Pictures are good, but whose shop is whose? Scott's place is pretty obvious with the tractors and the mill, but I am stumped at the rest.

Thanks to everyone that attended today and especially the hosts. Archie I am sorry we didn't get to your shop I tried to send the package to you twice. I must have messed up the address.

The saw mill demo was great. I would have tried the mill, but did not want to sepnd the rest of the day soaked.

Got to see a lot of jigs at Joe's. Glad I asked want kind of WWing he did (A lot of boxes).

George (and Alek's) place is easily the cleanest shop I have seen. As I said if I ever got hurt there the docs could perform surgery in there.

Dan some welcome to the group eh? Liked the his and hers places. My wife liked that too. Maybe thats how I'll get a separate shop. The EZ Smart system was cool too.

Jimmy: All that space....WOW (and a urinal!) Way cool and the bicycles were awesome.

Dave: If I had been shown pics of your shop and not been told it was yours I would have guessed right. The ti-dyed hanging, the cat clock with the skull, the beer (not to mention the tunes which would show up in a pic).

I enjoyed myself and all your company. I do it for that. Now it is time to go dormant on crawls till 2009. Maybe we can do the same route with all the shops we missed this time. (MikeH, Archie, Rocker, TV, Bigdog72...)

Thanks to all the hosts and thanks to Doug for coordinating.

Scott, you are the "big equipment" guy. Love how you off-handedly mentioned this planer you have with a 25 horse upper and a 35 horse lower motor. That is Tim Taylor territory!!

Mr. Scharle, we could have spent all day looking at all your jigs.

GeorgeL, we will not report you regarding making your son shine all that cast iron.

Dan, I have a feeling your wife had her pottery barn first, didn't she?

Jimmy, you have been talking about your shop for the last six months like it was an empty barn full of boxes. You have a neat place!!

DanO, now we know where all the inspiration comes from. You have a great workspace.

It was great visiting with old and new friends. Can't wait for the next one!!

BTW, since SteveW missed the crawl (we missed you) we are down to 3 members that have been on all the crawls...Tom Ferone, Jeremy and I. I may fall out if Rob runs one in the mountains though. Glad he drove all the way for this one. Glennbear from VA, Trent from Wilmington, Jeremy, Mike, and Pete from Charlotte, Tracy from Salisbury, and McRabbet from the mountains...gas crises what gas crises. Sincerely thanks for coming all that way. Glad I got to meet more of you.

Doug

But I got close enough to get some saw dust inside my shirt It looked like a lot of work, nothing that I wanted to do at 9:00 in the morning. I would like to give it a try sometime, when I don't have my nice clothes on

Dave it just ain't no fun if you don't wear it, breath it and taste it - it gets in your blood then and you become addicted... Start looking at trees a whole new way.

Glad you guys had fun - good times / good friends / good pictures and I even seen a beer so you know it had to be good...
