Thought I would share a few pictures from today. About 75* out, a great day for tractoring.

A chain, pallet, and 2 cinder blocks does wonders for the riding ring. Put it in 4WD, 2nd gear high range, 2000RPM, and just go. If I work from the inside out I cover my inside tire track so it works out great.

Thanks. Its really nothing fancy. It doesn't cover the whole fenced in area, but it covers the area that the horses usually get ridden on, and the main thing is it can be ridden on after it rains. Before it would take quite some time to dry out. I wish I could have done all the spreading and levelling myself, but I was down at my college while my neighbor delivered the material, and used his New Holland skid steer and a larger Ford tractor to level everything out. It would have been good practice on the skid steer, but thats OK .

I can almost smell the fresh pine air in those pictures.

Hey, Where'd you get that great side view mirror?

Gott get one for mine...

The mirror came with the tractor when I bought it from the previous owner. There are small raised areas with holes drilled where the mirror mount goes, so I think it was something from the factory. The problem is is it just jiggles around so much its looking at some completely different angle about 30 seconds later. I think the little ball pivot assembly on there may be broken in one spot .
