How many tractors in your neighborhood?

[Jstpssng]

How big can my neighborhood be? There are 4 houses on the 2 mile road that I live on. My nearest neighbor and I each have a Kubota 3301 with a Uniforest winch. The owner of the next house passed away, his kids come up occasionally. There's an old two cylinder JD in the barn of that property which thy use to keep the fields mowed and cut a little firewood. The last house is new, he also has an old two cylinder JD. Plus a JD350 bulldozer, and an older JD TLB.

Nobody lives on the property across from me but hey do have a few buidlings; one houses their BSM, another is the skidder shed which also may be used to keep their 950 John Deere or their new Massey, depending on whether they are working on that piece of property.

I live outside of town in farm country. Lots of tractors, something little like mine is less common but lots of big and medium sized ag tractors, all put to work usually.

I only have one tractor for 90 acres, but a slew of implements, including plow, disc, harrows, 3-point sprayer, post hole digger and heavy duty FEL. Next door neighbor with 650 acres has two ~50 hp tractors and a D6. Guy with 26 acres has a Case dozer. Neighbor with 5 acres has a whopping lawnmower because his wife has a snake phobia, but other than that doesn't do much. Another neighbor with 40 acres is the widow of a retired Navy guy with two useless sons. They have 14 cars, two of which run, three boats that never float, and an old cable blade D8 that hasn't run in 40 years.

In rural MI. Not a lot of people....10k in the whole county. At least 7 tractors in the 3 mile stretch to the paved road. We do not count lawn tractors as tractors...they only counts for citiots. Everyone has a lawn tractor.

8 in my immediate area but 3 of those are in my yard and mine are the only backhoes, so I get to be the grave digger I buried my neighbor's dog yesterday, the dog got into it with a truck and the truck won.

Ouch, that sucks. When I buried my dog I wouldn't use my BH even though there were two feet of snow on the ground. After 14 years I felt I wanted to do it by hand.

Crazy as it sounds, while I was digging I was sure that I could hear her barking off in the distance. It must have been the wind.

Sorry to hear. I can appreciate the manual digging. I’m not sure how I will handle my dog passing but could very well be in the same manner.

That's me as well. And I'm going to be a soggy mess when that day comes.

I'll be doing it again, sooner than I want to think. Ruger's only 10 years old but has had a couple of accidents and the arthritis is starting to get to him.
