Buried my Kubota in the mud last night. Pics

[LD1]

Thought I'd share some pics of y kubota buried in the mud.

Got home from work last night (I get home at 8PM) and wanted to get to a small section of my property that is really close to a mud pit to do some grading and get some grass seed planted before we get rain this week.

Now this "mud pit" is actually a ditchway for the overflow of my pond I just had dug last summer. I am having a heck of a time getting this black clay to dry out to be able to do anything with it Anyway, in an attempt to get it to dry out some, last week, I laid a 4" tile in this ditch, and topped with some dirt (black clay) that was left over. The goal is, instead of a ditch, I will have more of a shallow swail to carry water away during heavy rain, but with tile under it, it will dry out and be passable with the mower instead of a deep ditch.

Anyway, I got a little too close and "slid" in. I am sure others know how it is to be stuck in a ditch and being able to go forward and back 20' but unable to get out. :mur: And only getting stuck deeper.:thumbdown:

I gave up last night but got out tonight no problems and was able to finish what I wanted to do last night. Thank God it didnt rain today cause where I could pull from (only place to get to with anything) is also black clay. Even a tiny bit of rain turns that stuff to smeary gooey muck.

Enjoy my frustrating ordeal:laughing:

HOOO-WEEE! That's gettin' down there! Good thing the rain gave you a break so you could get it out. Up here, we've had close to 4" in the last three days, so I don't dare to get even close to my swampy hay field for at least another week... if it ever stops raining.:gloomy:

Thanks for having a good enough sense of humor to share with the rest of us. :smile:

No problem. I'll admit that I was a little Pi$$ed last night. Its not the first time nor will it be the last. I usually just get too caught up in things to remember a pic. And if It didnt get dark on me last night, I doubt I would be sharing any pics. But coming home from work today, all I could think about was taking a picture of the mess before I attempted the recovery.:thumbsup:

Wow!!! That's fantastic. I've been there my friend with my last tractor. However today I just happen to wash newer tractor.



. I thought it was fitting. I even added a little tire shine

LD1, you did a good job getting stuck and better getting out!

Everyone has mishaps, eventually, when working with a Tractor. Luckly you weren't close to a ravine resulting in your tractor rolling over. Sincerely glad that you got it out the next day.

OMG LD1.. now that was stuck. Now I don't be to be mean, or anything like that, but I did chuckle a bit when I saw the pictures..I mean heck anyone that would put spots on another mans deer, deserves a little hard luck now and then Just kidding, glad you got it out. And you did have guts enough to post the pictures... :thumbsup: Drive careful, and try to keep the shiny side up!
