sorry Roy, expensive day

60 out going to 67, warmer than they thought.
Have been working outside rolling mud ruts and after getting the Gravely stuck twice more, pulling it out with the tractor, it's clear no stone is coming tomorrow unless I want a dump truck as a field ornament.
I was thinking if he could start laying stone like on a driveway towards the end, he'd at least have stone to leave on. Really getting sick of this mud. Worse it smells like pig poop down by the barn so I know what the prior owner kept down there...

"Near" being a relative term... Work is 50 miles (vicinity of Charlestown, NH) from Bethel, and we were another 30 miles south.
But, it could have been worse...could have been in CT when the pump went...

Hit 50 today. Made it to work, lots of snow still blocking lanes. A few wrecks, people driving too fast and suddenly their lane became a 6 ft snowbank, or became a half lane.

Saw lots of front end loaders clearing lanes like this.

33F here, getting colder overnight. Most of our snow is gone, and we don't seem likely get to get more in the next week. Got a little work done at my wife's shop, then picked up chicken feed. Nice store in town, used to be the coop, now it's owned by a local farmer. The local farmers own lots of businesses here.

Have a good one!

Roy those fuel pumps can be a pain when they go out anymore. Hope yours doesn't hit your wallet too hard. BTW congrats on wife's birthday and 20K posts

3am and it is 58 outside and raining. We are predicted to have 3 days of rain, we will see.

Yesterday I picked up 2 loads of round bales (20 bales) and put them away, and my hay supplier offered me a deal on about 60 square bales at $4 a bale. I will be going back today for those. That should keep me till pastures come back in in the spring. Then I have a Doctors appointment with the liver Dr. this afternoon.

No work on the wagon in the rain, but the more I research, the more I am inclined to skip the pedal idea and just use the controller by hand.

37 right now...high of 38 today.

Turns out it wasn't the fuel pump...although all the symptoms pointed to that. At this point, the mechanic isn't sure what the problem is. Real bummer and I'm not sure where it will go from here. I am sure it's going to be costly.
I've already rented a car for my Connecticut trip tomorrow. More info when I get more info...
