The Gyppo Sawmill

Phoenix residents Bill and Bev Johnstone inherited a small sawmill in western Washington. Even before they took it over, they were warned to close it down. As they ignored the threat and moved to Littlerock, Washington, the threats worsened, and people lost their lives. The Johnstones and their kids learned a lot about logging and more about how to protect themselves from a large and evil organization that was out to stop all the gyppo loggers. With God's guidance and the help of their family they were able to finally find peace. I have a host of relatives in the logging business in the northwest. I grew up where trees were plentiful. I am now older and those places and things are only memories, but they live in my book.
