this screen shot is of the Dryad Lumber Mill on Luedenhaus Rd in west Lewis County. We did a remodel (due to damage on the original house built in 1911) and the ship lap is all labelled with this company. We also purchased 2 acres that ran along side our 8 acres and found out that it was the mill that bought the property. The lot is 1340 ft deep and 66 feet wide and was an old rail line that they hauled the logs out on. I know, CSB

I love old sawmills. I actually built some models of them (another hobby of mine - I don't sleep). Maybe I will add some old industry models I have built?

Schafer Park on the east fork of the Satsop is a nice place to go with the fam. Kids love the place. I caught my personal biggest steelhead on the Satsop just above the confluence with the Chehalis in 1986.

Denny Field. UW. 1910. Looks like our gridiron boys played tuff guys in the dirt.

True. I'm a little sad about that.
