If anybody believes a Hilux can carry more logs please get in touch - I'd like to see your evidence.
I've got 3 more days to collect another load. If anyone's feeling strong & in need of some country air, give me a shout. Lunch included.

It's only fair that I show you some of the unlovely parts of this magnificent peninsula. All along the edge of the national forest the road winds through acres of forest lands that have been clearcut. Whole mountains are stripped and brown, some sites still have mounds of stumps and branches piled for burning, and some have been replanted. These last often have prominent signs boasting of the fact. The log trucks fly along the roads loaded with huge straight logs...in the early part of the day they seemed a steady stream in some areas. Seeing the bare hills and ravaged woods made me very sad and it was always a relief when the road edged back into the lush shade of the protected forest. I thought a lot about what I was seeing. I hate the destruction of so much habitat but I have a hard time figuring out who to hold accountable. I live in a house made primarily of wood. Where do I want that wood to come from?
Still, these particular logging practices can be devastating:

Horses are a more effective form of transport in this hilly terrain.

Log Cabin Afghan a la Mason Dixon Knitting.
I have 20 squares so far. This is enough for a small throw. The yarn is Sugar 'n Cream which I used because it is cheap and comes in a lot of colors. I've only seen this yarn used to make dishcloths so I am a bit nervous about how this will turn out.
Any advice on how to join knit afghan squares?
In the 1860s, Major John Sims, Acting Indian Agent, oversaw the construction of a log cabin to serve as the Colville Indian Agency. The cabin maintained this role until 1885, when Agency operations were relocated to Fort Spokane. Sims and his wife, Lucy, continued to live in the cabin, staying on to homestead the site. In 1902, Dr. S.P. McPherson purchased the cabin as his personal residence. With the addition of a granary and other rooms, the cabin continued to meet the needs of the family, with the last descendants remaining until 2010. Concerned about the long-term stewardship of the cabin, the family donated the property to the Stevens County Historical Society. With the goal of using the cabin to interpret the Indian Agency period, the SCHS has worked to clean out the cabin and make needed repairs. But with the discovery of additional deterioration, the main focus is preserving the structure. The resource was documented through the Historic American Building Survey program in the 1930s, one of a very few resources in the state documented at the time as part of the Works Progress Administration program.

Possibilidades de cores e aplicações.
A ideia era fazer algo bonito e moderno. Pensei em uma forma que lembrasse as letras "L" e "F" unidas, já que o nome da locadora se dá pela união das palavras "Locadora" e "Fácil". Não há a necessidade de acentuação por se tratar de uma marca. O símbolo continua com a mesma leitura visto de cima, ou girando. Na tipografia tentei criar letras que combinassem com a forma do símbolo. Inclinei os elementos para transmitir velocidade e dinamismo. As cores foram escolhidas são preto, branco e laranja. Todas elas tem um contraste muito bom uma com a outra. Para finalizar escolhi uma fonte para a lettering abaixo do logo, Futura Light a fonte que melhor se adaptou.
