We picked up the tractor today and played around with it some learning how to operate it at the shop. I dug up a mesquite tree with the backhoe and its very cool. The front end loader makes me want to yank my hair out. I only managed a handful of dirt in the bucket with each scoop. Crazy control you pull down to go up and up to down. My hand and eye aren't agreeing with that. It keeps wanting to pull down to go down. Can't wait to try to auger. John is thrilled to not have to dig holes anymore he thinks, lol. I am better with the bushhog but don't have anyplace to use it until we get our land cleared. Lucy brought us supper tonight. It was really good! Reuben casserole yummy!Thank you soooo much! We are going back to get a trailer load of rocks tomorrow before they lock the gates and move to use for flower beds and pond edges. I am really tired after everything the last few days so about to go to bed. I'll check back in later. I swiped these pics off John's photobucket. Still can't find the cable to download my stuff. Its an older model tractor but works fine.
