Southern Loggin’ Times magazine Associate Editor Jessica Johnson visits Greg Williams Logging located in Saline, Louisiana. Greg Williams, 54, the owner of Greg Williams Logging, makes a habit of giving friends and family bumper stickers that say, “It’s A Fine Day for Logging.” Williams thinks every day is a fine day for logging, no matter the conditions. That kind of upbeat attitude isn’t always prevalent with loggers in the dry heat of Louisiana. But for Williams, he really does believe what he says. In fact, he proudly “flies the flag” and his truck has the forest green sticker. It started in a morning meeting, and it quickly grew, “I’m always coming up with different little anecdotes and I got started saying it every morning.” It finally stuck, and someone said he should probably put that on a bumper sticker…and the rest, well, it’s history.
