What to do…. #7867942 05/19/23 07:12 AM 05/19/23 07:12 AM

He called a logging outfit and they wanted to charge him to take them away. I offered to pay him for them but he said just come and get them. He had a crew take them down so all I had to do was pick them up. I will mill them to build cabins at the youth camp. Would it be better if I pay him or give him credit for a donation to the youth camp? If paying him, what is a fair price? I have about a dozen of these. They are roughly 22” in dia and 13ft long. -Goofy
