A few weeks back before we got this white stuff, we decided to hit up the wood pile that we accumulate during the year and fill the empty hay wagons that we then store in the shed for the winter. Since switching to large square bales, this ends up being the primary use for these wagons these days other than a few loads that we need for the horse show season. The Kubotas made the job a lot easier - M7040 on the circle saw, M8540 on the wood splitter and the B3030 did not want to feel left out so I used it for moving the wood around and lifting the logs to cutting height. Definitely a back saver! Had those wagons full (by full I mean what they could carry - about 1/3 full) and stored in the shed by mid to late afternoon. All in all a good day and wouldn't (no pun intended) you know it, we still have lots of wood for another day of cutting, splitting, stacking - darn! :)

All that orange is a pretty site. I see you had an operator for each tractor as well. That is what I am missing most of the time. I have plenty of Kubota's but it is usually just me here to operate them. It is amazing what a guy can get done with a little help from his friends, and a bunch of Kubota's.

Very true - that wooden fence you see in the background was one of those "all hands on deck" projects as well. Over 100 posts and 4 pallets of boarding weighing in at close to 2500 lbs each. As we get older we are using the Kubota's to do more of the lifting and it just makes for a nicer day all around and then you don't mind checking off the next todo on the list.
