I got a call at my house one evening from the county police telling me the lady that lives across the road from our remote tree farm property called them to report the lights on my tractor were on, it was late at night, and she was worried about me.
I told the county police that was nice, and I appreciate her concerns, but that I had the battery for that tractor in the cab of my pickup truck at my house 9 miles away. Hmmm..... asked them to go out and take a look at it. They called back and said the lights weren't on anymore.
My guess is that someone had taken a battery out there to try and start it. They couldn't drive out there, as the only road is chained and no way around. Maybe an ATV or dirtbike, but most likely a walk in. I didn't see any tire tracks around there.
Or maybe it's just a haunted machine....
or the old lady was nipping the rheumatism medicine!
