Hi all
Pulling a tree to the "burn pile". Tractor is parked indifferent spot than usual to unhook tree. Unhooked chain, split second decision and off through high weeds to right instead of usual left out of there. As I started in I thought, what a mistake. Pop.... hisssss; backed out and then checked weeds. Drove into a section of steel fence. You know, the kind that sort of looks like prison bars with points on top. Points are good for keeping persons from climbing over fence and also good for putting big holes in tires. Hole inside almost 1/2 inch long. Patched inside tire and still holding air 2 hours machine use later.
Todays tip; don't go in high grass etc. unless you know what's there.
Cheers......Coffeeman
