All In The family

MILLBORO, Va. J^xTracy Martin, 51, can recall his grandfa- __thers, both ofwhom spent their lives as loggers, telling him stories about skidding with horses. "I never saw any of the horse logging, but I would have liked to," he reflects. "My grand-daddy told me how a horse would pull up a drag of logs, and they'd just smack himon the butt and he'd go back out to get another." His wife, Donna, an integral part of Tracy Martin Logging, interjects, nodding toward her husband. "It kind of still works like that. He brings in a load and I smack him on the butt and send him back out to get more," she laughs. "So it hasn't really changed that much."
