    Heaven on Earth. I'm 63, love this type of work and can still do it all day.
    Logging is the most satisfying activity I know of. Something about wood.

    Heart of America right here. Hard work, self-reliance, family, community, capitalism

    That son driving the tractor is very good looking.Maybe the cameraman could find him part-time work in the movie industry...

      That's Edward. A good Christian man from what I understand. Kenny is the one in Yellow. Willie in the orange hat is their father. There is more of this family on the documentary called "A Portrait of the Ozarks". You can view it on UA-cam. There are two parts.

    No family member has made a comment on any of these videos. Strange.

    That loader tractor would scare the sh_ _ out of me.... Lifting logs as high as they are, to get them on the top of the stack on the flatbed, No protection for the tractor driver if a log slips off the forks....

      They did slip off sometimes. Thats why if you notice the hood is beat up. You could always tell a tractor that was used for loading logs by the hoods being bent
