    Born and grew up in PA, dad worked at ITT Rayonier. I miss seeing the trucks loaded up heading for the mills. Left for Alaska after the work dried up and the mills close. Hard to bring myself to go back anymore, just isn’t the same place.

    Footage my dad took back in the day. It came together pretty nicely after a bit of work and got a big smile from dad so I'm happy with it. Very dramatic.

    This makes me think of a very good friend of mine. He is gone now. But ran a logging crew roughly in that same area. Bloom brothers logging.

    They are too touchy sensative of people in general. Only work freelance cutting. Won't deal with that drama. Good for them.. .very easily sensitive people.
