Terry has all sorts of experience and is happy to let us know many things he finds important that we might not get elsewhere. What to do before you log, during and after logging too. This will have to do with thinning, clear cutting, log markets, brands, log sizes and perhaps even taxation issues. There will be plenty of time for questions.
