All tractor, all the time—

John Deere and my GM (good man, not general motor).  Finessing the box scraper.  Kind of like trying to fix a watch with a hammer.

Jetta.  Impressed.

GM doing other manly things with the tractor.  Did I tell you we have one now?

The guys can’t be in the arena with the tractor.  They get too curious.  I saw Dustin almost get backed over by a Bobcat once.  I guess he didn’t realize it didn’t have a rear-view mirror.  So while we worked,  they got let back out onto the pasture—which is a rare thing once the grass starts to come up.  Here, you see their attitude about it.  Zion with the blaze.  Hickory doing the cha-cha.  Could also have something to do with a storm coming.

Nice, even from behind.

Dustin.  Pretty good for a 66 year old dude.  In people years.  Yeah – wait till you’re that old and see if you can lift your eleven hundred pound patootie off the ground that far.
