So where did the water come from? You hit spring or something?

Looks like it's only half stuck. Half of it is still visible!!! :)

No it was really too wet to box blade but I went back one more time for that last little spot ....

I have a friend that was a Marine combat engineer in Vietnam. The tanks would get stuck in the rice paddy mud at times and with their flat bottoms the suction was too much for any piece of equipment to pull them out. He said that they would push a piece of C4 under the tank, hook it to another tank, get them both "pulling" and then set off the C4. It would pop them up in the air just enough to break the suction and they would pull them out.

Don't try this with your tractor :D

It's always that "last spot" you get stuck in. :rolleyes:

I have been stuck many times trying to mow that last spot so I didn't have to weedeat.
