New tractor owner in Oklahoma

[Ranch Lady]

The tractors are all mine. My husband has not driven any of them. i have just driven the Kubota M4900 and the little Yanmar. I am still learning about gears, clutches and shifting. I hope I learn it faster than I learned how to back a trailer. I am still not good at that one.

If someone has not already told you, the easiest way to learn to back a trailer is to put you hand on the bottom of the steering wheel. Then if you want the trailer to go to the left, move your hand (turn the steering wheel) to the left. If you want the trailer to turn to the right, move your hand to the right. Best to start with the vehicle and trailer lined up straight, go slow, and don't oversteer.

Someone with a better memory than me can tell the story of the running battle Bob's Bar-b-que had with the State Health Department.:licking:

I'd like to hear that story; I used to work for the State Health Department; later the DEQ. Seems like there was a cement company in Ada whose name came up at the DEQ occasionally.

It was back in the '80's that Bob's in Ada did battle with the inspectors regarding the contents of his sauce. They shut him down for a period of time as I recall. A friend of mine that worked in the lab at the State Health Department told me to never eat his sauce - something about a perfect place for bacteria to grow and then it got disgusting.

The Owner of Bob's Bar-B-Que in Pauls Valley (no connection between the two places) and I had a conversation about it a few months back.

There is also an old family run Bar-B-Que in Chickasha that is good. Only problem I've had there is their portions are too large.

:welcome: to TBN! You have a nice fleet of tractors! I used to own a small Yanmar as well, it was the best first tractor I could have ever asked for. :thumbsup:

I've eaten at Bob's in Pauls Valley and Jake's Rib in Chickasha. You're right; the portions are really big! No one can eat that many French Fries. I think Bob's in Pauls Valley is about as good as it gets; except maybe the ribs I cook on my Big Green Egg.
