TODAYS SEAT TIME

[hunt4570]

My aluminum ladder is now 26' after getting 2' burnt off, so it was barely long enough to wire down those gutter screens. I put them up when I had staging set up, then the first 6" snow storm in late November flipped over most of the screens when the snow was sliding off the metal roof, didn't see that coming, so 6 years ago I wired the screens down and that's last time I had my ladder at full extension, and I dont care for the bouncing affect either.

6 years ago...........

I have a couple pump jacks made for standing walls up, your tractor works nice but not on the second floor.

Today was suppose to be "stump grinding" day, but I had to use that tractor to cut a load of garden mulch this morning, then I got a call, "can you come rotavate my field?", so hi ho hi ho off to work I go!

And I leave there with my pockets fuller, and another veggie farmer smiling!

Looks like the stumps will have to "hurry up and wait some more"!!

You know the stumps aren’t going anywhere.

And it probably made your day, you always want to buy a rotavater.................

Took the tractor down to dad's, got the creek crossings cleaned out from the past years silt build up, ready for hay equipment access next week. I think my father in law will mow for us on Tuesday, (I gotta work) and we will take care of it from there.

Will take a couple bucket loads of the fine dirt up to dad's grave, its settling in quite a bit, needs topped off.

Well, considering I've owned the rotavator pictured, since the 80's and it's coming up on 2,000 acres tilled, plus I also have two other Howard rotavators, only thing making my day was to make a few bucks with one of them! :thumbsup:

Well, since rain is scheduled for Monday night, I figured I'd take the little bit of dry time to move 1 of my manure piles to the main pile.





I forgot to take before pics of the pile before I moved it. Took me about 5 hours and I got most of what I could with the bucket. Need the manure fork to do the rest

Took a little rough video of one of my many back and fourth trips. It wasnt all that easy to hold my phone with 1 hand while trying to operate the loader and work the steering wheel etc etc..

No pictures, working alone while operating the loader that leaks down and swatting mosquitoes and driving and shifting all at the same time... I managed to mow probably 1/4 acre of 6' tall reed canary grass with the brush hog, didn't even get stuck! Then I tried to pull the willow tree that died over the winter, that was way more of a workout, tried pulling from both directions I could get to (180* apart) but inconveniently the only structural root left was 90* from the direction of pull so nosed up to it and lifted the root ball with the loader and chopped the root with an ax and nearly got myself stuck (4" wide front tires with a loader in soft soil is fun at times...). That stupid soft soil is a pain, I nearly got stuck a handful of times, but I'm better set up than I have been in the past and more experienced...

That's all the seat time I could do, gotta water the dirt I need to work for my shop build, my timing didn't work out and it dried out.

I'm surprised you travel with the bucket that high in the air...
