Took the tractor out for a "Sunday drive" in the woods after changing the oil.

Mounted* my helmet cam on the hood.

Very pretty trails.

Thanks! Looks like your area is really nice too.
New England woods are the spice of life. Any wooded area, really.
Best place to get away. It's like an instant vacation.

I enjoy the woods too. I think we are lucky.

How often do you mow the grassy area between the trees in the first part of the video? I have some places like that, I mow once or twice per summer. That seems to be enough to keep the grass fairly healthy and not get overtaken by brush and weeds.

I mow it about every 2 weeks to keep it under control. Kinda swampy in that area. Can almost see it grow in real time. ha!

Thanks! Figured I'd post something different/non-work related.

It does look very lush.

Very cool. It's great to be able to live out in the country like that.

So true. I see all these McMansions around built on postage stamps. I just can't understand why people would do this with their money when they could have bought a smaller home w/ acreage. If I were forced to choose between a fancy house with little land, and a tent with tons of land, I wouldn't even hesitate choosing the tent.
