Two tilling jobs yesterday, huge food plot for one and two gardens with hilling for another.

Mowed my yard for the first time with my new-to-me gc2400 with 54" deck. I feel like I have been missing out. Don't get me wrong, I liked my old wheelhorse, but this is totally different. Hour and a half job now maybe hour tops, and that's only because I was enjoying myself.

Moved out a bunch of rounds and started to create berms for planting.

Not too long after this got into the mud and barely got out with all wheels spinning.
Took a while to hose off...

Finally (hope I won't get bitten for this) cleaned, removed & stored chains, removed & serviced snowblower & quick hitch assembly, fixed a soft tire, put on FEL for moving some rocks around... Winter's over! :)

I feel lazy.
due to weather only thing I did was use it to push a deere x530 lawn tractor (waiting for an ECU so I can make it start and return to owners) out of the way of my shed entrance.
was gonna replace my mid mount lift shaft (over the years torque twist has made rt side lift about 1.5 inches less then left side) but...1/2 inch of rain every damned day nullified that hope.

edit: BTW don't hook a 1k amp booster direct (both + and -) to battery on a deere x series lawn tractor. ECU runs 85-120$.

Yes, I see that, and they're talking about the possibility of snow next Tuesday... but not much. (Otherwise rain.) If necessary, I can remove with the FEL, but in any case I doubt it'll stay on the ground long...at least I hope not!

Another company came in and attempted a shed pad for this customer. They chose to dig down into saturated ground and accomplished a soupy mess, then threw up their hands, stated “we can’t do it” and left…..

I was able to flatten the soup out to an acceptable level. Put in geotex fabric, 12 tons of base rock and 6 tons of 3/4. Came out pretty good.

I don't think this will effect you, but I'm glad I did not put away my blower and FEL on thrusday while it was warm. National Weather Service has issued a weather alert for up to 12 inches of snow monday night into tuesday.

Wonder how much we'll get.

Saw that; we're supposed to get around 5-6" of wet, soupy stuff, changing to rain after 7AM. FEL is ready....
