Fun Little Factoid

The Land Report published their Fall 2010 magazine and the main article is the Top 100 Largest Landowners in the US. 


Look who made the list at #78.



The Crosby Family is Michael's family on his mother's side (her maiden name was Crosby).


If you can't read the fine print, it states: 
Crosby Land and Resources was brought to our attention this year.  We were remiss in overlooking the largest family-owned, non-industrial private timberland company in Louisiana.  "We do not own nor operate any converting facilities," Robert H. Crosby III says modestly.  "We're just one big tree farm with a focus on maintaining a healthy and sustainable forest for the benefit of current and future generations of family owners."  The privately held company has been operating for over a century in Louisiance and Mississippi.
Kinda cool for the family business to be in operations for over a century.
