Perched atop a pile of freshly hewn logs, Walter Braman watches his grandson, Calvin Johnson, run a log loader Tuesday afternoon along the East Randolph Road in Chelsea. Logging land owned by the Chelsea Fish & Game club, Johnson noted that the 12-day job will yield saw logs, which will be shipped to Canada to become dimension lumber (like 2x4s), telephone poles, which are processed in Connecticut, and tons of chips, which go to Ryegate, where they are burned to generate electricity.
