I had a hell of a day on the farm.
My wife gave me a pile of chores to do before she headed to a birthday party and the nursery to buy plants.
Will and I hooked up the dump trailer to the 100hp 4x4 tractor and headed to the back of the property where we have a nice dirt pit. My dad was back there in the excavator and he filled the trailer up to the rim with perfect topsoil/mulch for a project my wife dreamed up.
Of course, this turned into 10 trailer loads of topsoil for 4 different beds and her garden. By about the 5th trip with the WAY overloaded dump trailer, the road gave away and the trailer sunk.
So, I needed to find another route from the dirt pit and Will was tired of the tractor.
We jumped in "rocket" and blasted around the farm for about an hour. Pat Holland helped me by installing a new clutch sheave in my Rhino and not it hits 50 mph. There are very few places here that I couldd use any more speed than that. It is a freaking blast and Will loved it.
So by now Julie is home, takes Will and I jump on the small tractor with the bucket and start spreading all of this dirt. She is steady planiting new plants, kids are raising hell in the woods playing Pokeymon.
Now she needs pine straw. Lots of it. I, being the excellent help that I am, told her I would go back into the pine trees and rake up some pinestraw. I told he I would get her a "truck" load. Shae was happy. So this is the "truck" I took
She did not think that load was too funny, so she sent me back for more, and more, and more. 7 loads of pine straw
Finally she tells me she is done with me, that I just need to go get 2 plants she left at her garden shed. So she is using my gas cart with the water sprayer to soak her new plants, so I jump in the monster barbie jeep and head off. On the way back I am taking the scenic route drinking a beer and get stuck in the mud : So I have to call in the cavalry (Wench with a Winch) She LOVED this laughing1
Berkley worked the winch and Julie held the brakes. It was a fine moment.
Finally, I rent a trencher next week so I can get water to the front of the property where this new landscaping project is happening. About 200' direct, so I dont know what it will take to snake it through the woods.
