SPARKMAN, Ark.I had a little troublefinding the place—GPS is good but it has its limits in the woods, and the pin originally sent me to a spot a highway mile or so away from where Gene Givens Logging, Inc., was actually set up on August 12. My guess is the little gravel road I first found was probably an exit somewhere on the other end of the block that Gene and his son Gregory were working at that time. A brief phone call to Gregory quickly righted my course. A few minutes later: pay dirt, I knew, as I could now see two Givens log trucks about a quarter mile off Highway 9, past a shooting house on the right.
