3000

DSCF2994  Shane came over from Hillsboro, KY to deliver the tractor this afternoon. We answered his add on craigslist and went to look at it on Wednesday. It looked clean and well taken care of. He threw in the boom pole which I put to work right away. He didn’t need it anymore because his new tractor has a front end loader.

DSCF2999 The boom pole is a hydraulic lift that fits on the 3-point hitch. It made moving around the railroad ties much easier.

DSCF3001 Andy helped get the pasture drag set up.

DSCF3002 I dragged both sides of the front pasture. It aerates the soil and breaks up the horse poo piles. The poo actually can kill the grass if it isn’t broken up.

  2. It is important to understand that the tractor is a tool, not a toy. It is intended for work and requires much concentration and care while operating to ensure safety and intended result. It was a blast!
