Family Album

AndyR · Feb 22, 2001

Well now that the new tractor is here (no I haven't named it) I figured this would be the time for a family picture. The old red Super C will be sold in the spring and I promised my wife she can use the JD garden tractor. (wonder if I could put a ROPS on that - she's not mechanical.../w3tcompact/icons/wink.gif .

Nice spread...and a chainsaw in the bucket! I carry mine that way too, but wonder if there's a bracket or something that would let me mount it someplace safer...

with a great deal of effort. The trip mechanism was gone when I got it so you have to get out and trip it yourself. One of the things I need to correct (the generator is the other) before I sell it. Other the the trip issue, it is a strong bucket (though it is a bit on the small side).

Andy,
I guess you won't have much of a use for that snowblower on the JD since now you have the new Kubota. /w3tcompact/icons/wink.gif

What did I see...a new trailer also for the Kubota. /w3tcompact/icons/shocked.gif

You sure had busy day,and do kick back and relax this evening.

Now that's the kind of family photo to have! /w3tcompact/icons/smile.gif

Looks like you been playing the tractor game for quite a while. I expect you're going to have a lot to contribute to this board.

I'm also suspecting you've got a right nice digital camera. Good news for us! /w3tcompact/icons/laugh.gif

Just one question -- how did my chainsaw helmet get into your bucket? /w3tcompact/icons/crazy.gif

The trailer belongs to the mason who is working on the barn foundation. (The old foundation had begun to buckle to the point where it was unstable). There are now 3 bents supported by steel beams and cribbing while he rebuilds the granite wall far better then it first was. 12x12 timbers arriving this weekend will be put in place to fix the old sills as soon as I have a chance to work them. New tractor will be a big help in moving them around.
