Not really today, but over the past week.

Spread 3 loads of 2A stone to make a parking area and level off the area around my old pad, where the new building is going in.

Managed to bend the arm on my 3PT again, backing up with the box blade, caught the outside edge, and now I have a banana.

Finished seeding the land I cleared. Picked up all the debris left over from cutting down a few trees.

Bought a new Cub Cadet mower last month with a bagger. My previous mower just blew the cuttings out all over the lawn. I've been adding the cuttings to a lonely pile of weeds, sticks and other discards behind the shop and mixing it all with the bucket of my 26 MAX. I must say there's some satisfaction to turning the pile every other day and seeing the steam shoot up in front of the tractor. What once was a discard pile is now some very nice compost.

Welded a grab hook on my new bucket. Might not seem like a big deal but I have found this to be one of the most useful additions to have on an FEL

Hooks are a must have for sure. I welded three on my bucket last week, one center and one on each end. Still need to paint them up though.

Yeah for sure. I’ve got hooks welded to everything including the rear bumper on my truck which I also fabricated. They really do come in handy

Me an my beast digging some stumps. Cut down two hollow trees, one big one leaning towards my power line, and one dead one. Just got done shoving the biggest stump out of the hole. Either it weighs too much, or more probably, I was not getting it fully on the forks, but she was a workout. Even stalled the motor a couple times... Going to take some of the slope out of that side of the drive and make a proper ditch. Final shot is one of my beast.... Life is GOOD.....!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :)

Worked on the PTO safety switch because it was stuck
Worked on the fuel float because it had failed
Worked on the fuel shut off at the filter because it was broken
Waited for a new throttle cable because mine is sticking
Noticed that the front differential seal is now leaking.
Held my breath in anticipation of what will go wrong next.
Wished it was paid for so I could get rid of it.

Worked on the PTO safety switch because it was stuck (Not the best electrical components on these things I guess?)
Worked on the fuel float because it had failed (gas tank?, Warranty?)
Worked on the fuel shut off at the filter because it was broken (Who Broke it?)
Waited for a new throttle cable because mine is sticking (Normal, keep oiled or greased)
Noticed that the front differential seal is now leaking. (Warranty?)
Held my breath in anticipation of what will go wrong next. (Something always will)
Wished it was paid for so I could get rid of it.

How many hours on that thing?

Haven't been able to do anything, as I now live in a swamp at the top of a mountain with all the rain we have had.

But this morning, during my commute, I passed a flatbed carrying a whole bunch of Mahindra attachments, which was cool to see. Probably 50 different pieces of all sizes and shapes. Made me want to play on my tractor.

:) We are dry up heah in Northern Lower Michigan.... Burn ban... still waiting for our Spring rains.... Great stump digging weather, though. Dirt just fall off the roots. [ Ma Nature is a fickle bee itch :) ]
