In late JUly when Mr. Brown was here he asked about the shop
and I told him at that time I had always worked with wood. I was
suprised to get this letter and really dont know what he is compl-
aining about. In the spring of XX
XX asked me to make him some 2X4 and 1X4 wood stakes
which I did. This was my first customer, The second was XX
XX which I also made stakes for. Which we have cont-
inued to this day.
With the old customers and all the new ones picked up it was
easy giving up the lawn & garden business. A couple years back the
zoning administrator came to us and told us not to get to big. If
a company has a good product you cant help but grow. We now have
our logs brought here and have Can't Eardly lumber co. come in with
his portable saw mill's and cut our lumber. Through the growth of
the business we have helped to take 5 families off the welfare roll.
These families do not directly work for us, they work on the saw
mill's, for trucking and in the woods. We now serve 41 customers
from engineers, Const. companies, surveyors, road comm. & etc.
Thank you,
