Get my tractor the 29th! I'm buying myself a Ratchet Rake.

First, I got a new seat for my backhoe.
The old one had a couple of rips, which I had repaired with black Gorilla Tape. The new one is a "High Back Lawn Tractor Seat" from Tractor Supply. It's a better seat than the original, but a tad bigger. When I mounted it in what looked like the same position as the old one, it felt like I was pushed (by the thicker cushion) a little farther toward the hoe. I moved it back one space (about 1.5 inch) and it sits comfy, but now I fear it will be too close to the tractor seat. (The backhoe is now sitting on dollies in the garage.) On the seat side, there is another pair of holes that would get me halfway between. Using them, I don't line up with holes for bolts 3 and 4. However, I can drill two more holes in the plate on the backhoe and that set will work. I think I think I will do that.
Second, I got a $50 gift card to Tractor Supply.:thumbsup: I haven't decided what I will use it for, but there's lots of possibilities.
Third, I got a John Deere sweatshirt. Just the thing for those cool days.
Here, in my part of Maine, we got enough snow to look pretty, but not enough to need plowing - just right!
Merry Christmas to all!

Funny you should mention getting coal for Christmas. My brother gets us a couple truck loads of it for Christmas. He works at a coal mine and gets ten tons a year for free of stoker coal.

Two work lights. Already mounted them temporarily on superstrut and zip tied them to the ROPS and wired them up. That will do until I get time to do it right. To many other irons in the fire to spend much time on it now.
Merry Merry and Happy Happy to all.

Nada... Santa must have gotten lost along the way...
On the other hand... I had the family, (Extended Family) well covered!
Christmas is definitely a loss leader.

The stockings were hung by the chimney with care....When down by the fireplace there arose such a clatter, I sprang from the bed to see what was the matter. When, what to my wondering eyes should appear, my wife wresting 2 sets of rear wheel weights. :laughing::thumbsup: Thank goodness she did not get them into my stocking it would have ripped the mantel off the fireplaces. :laughing: I will give her credit for the effort since they weigh more than her.
