It's not often that one views a photograph of pipe-smoking peavey
users. My father's father, and at least one of his sons, were at
various points in their lives, peavey users for compensation, and
sawmill workers, too. I have limited my peavey experience to an
understanding of its operation, though I have vivid memories of sawmill
green chain and dry chain labor during summer "vacations." The sawmills
are gone, and so are most of their former workers, roused only by
black-and-white photographs of long-gone days.
