      Thanks Tim, happy you all enjoyed it. It was a great time and seems to grow each year. A lot of families there that have attended for years and years. We’ve been going since we were kids, a lot of memories!

      She’s definitely good people . Honastly we didn’t think she would have time to talk with us but we figured it was worth a shot to ask and she said yes . Woodsman’s day at the fair is always a good time . Been going since I was old enuf to drive myself there and it never disappoints.

    Hello Phil and Karen. Thanks for taking us along to the show. I think they should have had a stacking competition and Karen could have competed and taken the gold medal. Phil I’ve seen you use that 500I with some speed. You probably would have given them a run for the money. Thanks for another good video.

    • @AllenFamilyFirewood

    Does this last all week? It looks like a fun and interesting event. Too bad it is the same time as Paul Bunyon. The Bunyan used to have all these events and was a required eve3nt for the people that compete nationwide. Hocking College started the Paul Bunyan Show but the new president decided she didn't want it anymore. It is a shame because it really helped the small towns near there because it brought in so many people. You would have had to drive past my house to get there. I retired as an instructor there and attended the college when I got out of the USAF.

      It’s definitely the biggest fair in Maine and woodsman day brings in a huge crowd . Been going since I was a teen and never competed and probably never will there’s some serious competition at this event . It’s much more enjoyable standing at the fence and watching everyone .
