Thanks everybody for the birthday wishes. I’ve been having so much fun with this machine. Already cleaned out an old birch tree that was covered with fill, cut the top off raised it up with the loader and dragged it up 8 feet to the top of the fill for the lawn were taking back from the woods. Today I dug up three stumps and my neighbors are already salivating thinking of all of the projects that we can do up here in the neighborhood.
Well I’ll tell you guys, it was pretty funny with my wife. In the morning she made the comment that the code to open the garage door was not working so I checked it and no problems (must have been user error). When she came home from work I made her go outside to try the code, and this time it works. As the garage is starting to open and I can see the loader bucket and I know she’ll see the tractor in a minute, she ends up entering the code and closing the garage without seeing the tractor. So this time I had to enter it and open the garage the whole way and she was so excited that I bought the tractor. To make it an even better birthday she bought me a Craftsman 127 piece tool set.
The only reason I can write this now is my wife took a quick refresher on operating the tractor and now she’s out there playing around in the dirt and doing some yard work and I’m stuck inside watching my daughter. Currently watching the Pajanimals – my how life changes, but always for the better.
Deathtoblackberries – I read your posts before making my decision and we were both debating the same machines and I definitely think we both made the right choice.
Lamarbur – I checked the id number but I his name does not have the RH so it might be someone else.
Here’s a couple of shots of my wife out there playing in the dirt, and one of the little operator on her tractor.
