I love the old iron.
I just want to drive it out of the path of the fire, and drive it back later.
Was dreading this part . Knew for sure some of the bolts would snap . But it came apart very easy guess lots of anti seize on the bolts . Had it off in 10 minutes 
Morning
️ off work today, unfortunately for a funeral for my old boss, 4 wheeler accident 
, be careful out there.
Wood shed is almost full from stuff I cut last year. First load of fresh stuff this year
mostly wanted to take the pickup out for a test run. Been running hot, apparently the 3 month old thermostat wasn’t opening all the way, new one seems to of fixed it.
New visitors at the house
might have to get the pellet gun out for this one (rock chuck on log pile)
Hope everyone has a great, fun, safe week and Independence Day.

You typically end up with more money in them than they are really worth, but I enjoy collecting them, and honestly I use them quite often. I figure a new tractor will cost more than my 5 and counting collection so I am still money ahead, makes me feel better to tell myself that any way. Now I can keep something hooked to everyone and not be changing implements all the time.
New equipment just does not seem to have the same cool stories attached to it. Like how this tractor replaced 2 draft mules in 1961 and they really thought they had made it to the top, or how him and his cousins ran it in the ditch up the road 2 days before one of them left for Vietnam.
Afton stone gunk, I was grading the driveway.What on earth is that all over the rear tire? Very strange. jmhoOT
It’s a full suppression fire, they’re hitting it pretty hard. It’s at 12,631 acres this morning, grew North and West yesterday. Our place is North of the fire. I keep being told the movement is insignificant, but one map shows the length of the fire being just less than the distance from the fire to our place. The concern is the fire has started up creeks that lead right up into our area, and fire loves to climb up canyons. They added 4 evac zones today (Stage 2, be ready to go) , to the west. These are getting close to foothill communities with a lot of people compared to earlier zones, one more zone West and it will be.
All I need to know is there’s no way I could afford a lawn mower the size of mine if it was somewhat new.
Maybe you could just wait until all the big equipment is there and blend in
I think I’d have to be going the same direction as them.
Sounds bad-ass. Is that a 6-71 in it?

I had it running when the Sheriff deputy walked down the other day. I had just used it to lift the log splitter into the trailer, hanging from a chain. I removed the chain and was about to get back in when I thought I stepped on a squeaky toy, it was the Sheriff whistling. I looked down by my feet, then started scanning. There he was walking down the hill waving his arms. It was a nice conversation, he was cool about the whole thing. Friends were coming in to tow the splitter out, but a neighbor (up there) had told me already that no one was going to be allowed in. I couldn’t load it myself, so I used the loader. That wasn’t ideal without someone to guide it, but I managed.
The anchors came for the shed . I’ve used this type before I really like them 
Decided to go this route... had 4 sheets of grey left. Not what i wanted to do, but it will work just fine.

Well I guess there is a difference in pressure treated wood . These boards were put down at the same time . I was short 3 boards so I went to Lowe’s and got them , boards on the left Home Depot right is Lowes 
Home depot is more left than lowes
.
.
Now you tell me ... I just bought some 5/4 decking at HD today!
Take it back. That being said, who knows what lowes or home depot has in stock now, things were way different in the lumber market 3 yrs ago.
I figured you'd just mill some black locust.
That's awesome.
Was the humidity high lol.
