Began with the haying season for a couple of days ago, so here is the first video where I cut the grass. The tractor is a Same Explorer 65, from 85 `. Mower is Khun. Will post more videos as I get time to upload.

I farm close to 185 acre with this setup.

Well we on our 4th day of raining. I know we have got around 5 inches of rain so far. Something broke my rain gauge and really got more than that. About 2 weeks ago we got 7 inches in like 4 days. Wow we are WET.
