The Hedstrom Lumber Yard on the Gunflint trail was a pretty amazing sight. Here is some information about the corporation on their website:
Hedstrom Lumber is a sawmill located in Grand Marais, Minnesota. The company processes logs into dimensional lumber. It employs around thirty people and delivers over seven hundred truckloads of lumber annually to retail yards throughout the Midwest.
une belle reserve de bois pour ma cheminée ;)
ReplyDeleteThere is a lot of lumber here waiting to be processed but, I was especially drawn to the hints of fall color showing up in the bottom photo.
ReplyDeleteInteresting sight. If just three generations in 98 years, the current generation must be pretty old.
ReplyDeleteI would need some for our open fire !
