Really neat story.

Just goes to show you that some things are never forgotten. And really an eerie feeling. My father in law was a woodsman..timber cutter in West virginia as well as other places for approximately 20 yrs... He told me of a couple of Christmas parties they had during the time that he cut timber. Is it possible he could have been at the one told of? Doubtful because he didn't start cutting timber till 1918.... Still gives me an eerie feeling though. Uneducated he was not.. Vey smart man. He told me that in an era when the average worker made 4-5 bucks a week he was making that every day..and being given a place to stay and as he expressed it...great food. HARD work though!
