Waiting for log prices to go back up. I retired in January and am ready to
harvest, but the market is not cooperating. We had a price spike last summer
when the Chinese starting buying logs, but just as quickly they quit buying
logs and the price went back down again.

Still, with Japan rebuilding after the tsunami and the housing market
starting to show some life, things are better than they have been for a
while.

Growing older Joe, and the forestry trade is dwindling down here with RIT's
taking over the landscape. Been doing damage appraisal, a little theft
work, a little management plan work, but mostly telling folks what they
don't want to hear, your timber is too small to sell.
