As far as a company in the forest industry I think they are in a pretty good position. It's an old mill that they seem to be doing yearly multimillion dollar upgrades to. As long as they continue to invest in the site the outlook should be good. But then again a few investors could wake up one morning and decide they want their money someplace else.

Not surprising if it's a running producing mill. Just the equipment alone is worth mullions upon millions. That's before all the forestry rights.

Every one of those trucks represents a bunch of money. Do they ship by rail as well?

They truck it to the Trans Canada 55 miles south of the mill and there is a lay yard there by the CP rail tracks. Where it goes from there I'm not sure but it's wrapped and banded. There are also trucks hauling unwrapped bundles as well but not dropped off at the rail yard. I think they also do 4 foot and 5 foot lengths I believe are for pallets..

Tons of open spaces up there ! ... ... Your aspen and Birch are very lovely in the fall ! Most of the full sized Pallets here are made from White Oak at the small town Saw mills from rural areas.

Good morning Steve..I think I know what the problem is with the panel. Fuel line isn't holding pressure so my pump might be on its way out..might try putting in a check valve for a cheap solution..

Internet has slowed here 2, think the Amazon Server situation is a PITA. Amazon has gone huge with Internet Server Systems. Reboot every hour seems to quicken it up. Most likely that Tornado in the St. Louis area that destroyed an Amazon Huge Warehouse has caused some problems with the Midwest Servers there. Most likely Colorado fires are messing with me. Denver is a main rural center of the NW & West of Denver. Happy New Years Eve guys ! .......... Is so beautiful out here, sure hope the old man makes it till rebirth at 12:01 2022 !

My internet is usually pretty slow but better than nothing. Time for an up grade.
