FEL Practice..She's a natural!

Warning: Proud Papa gloating post to follow.

So my daughter is 14 and has driven the tractor plenty...and even my car and truck a few times. But she has never used the FEL on the tractor before today. She was outside with me while I was clearing the snow and was bored, so I thought it was the perfect opportunity for her to learn by moving snow! She spent about 1 hour moving a couple snow piles to 1 spot in the yard.

I fear I may have lost my tractor...

I suspect there might be competition for the machine ..... at least until she becomes interested in something else.

Oh YEAH !

It is now HER's for sure.

It is time (and now you have the excuse) for a bigger/better tractor for YOU.
Just be SURE that it is clearly understood who gets to use which one and when (-:
Not much chance of that either...

That's good stuff right there!!! You have lost your machine I suspect.

Just until she discovers boys

Lost proprietorship of the tractor, but gained some sitting-by-the-fire time.

It's safer to have her do the snow removal. Snow sharks don't bite teenagers.

Just don't get heated cab,you might have chance for seat time.

She is a winner! Oh and it is so nice to see you people down there getting what we get all winter long and this storm you are having now might, just might give us 1-4 inches. Darn that felt good.

I just showed the pics to my 14 yo boy that hasn't even tried to drive the tractor....
I just got in from moving some of that stuff, kind of hard to measure how much we got, last time I measured in the driveway it was 18" and still coming down.
