Yes sir, lots of work (fun) today. Cleaned the hog, then cleared a bunch of brush and cut down a huge pine that was dead.

Brush hogged the 1 1/2 acre field next door for the neighbor. Grass was over 5ft tall 
took 4 hours since it was so tall and thick.
Later this week I'm gonna run back over it with the finish mower. Neighbors looking to get it knocked down to where he can mow it with his riding mower.
Gave the L1501 a pretty good workout. Really blew the carbon out of her

still dropping Ashe trees.... we got 10 down now & 12 more to go but they the rest are all in that 18" or smaller diameter range & about 40' tall.
these were the bigger ones with all of them over 2' x 45-55'
cutting the bigger diameter stuff into pieces i can move around with the tractor...
the base of this big one is right at 30". got about a 16' section that im cutting down to 5' pieces so i can move them around & thats plenty for this tractor.

The flooding saga continues, Like they say "Going from rescue to recovery",
but now it is "preparation not repairing".
Cut two faces into the sides of the drive way, one for the inlet of an 18" culvert.....
and one for the outlet.....
used all the removed soil to build a dam
(about 6' high at the tallest and about 6' wide, wide enough to drive the Bota across).....
This will channel the run-off into the pipe and keep it off the driveway.
Have two Futerra® F4 Netless® Vegetative Establishment Blankets 78” x 90’ (65 sy),
I will drape these over the dam to get some vegetation started. (hopefully).

My friend and, old boss has one of those other orange tractors a Kioti, with a backhoe,
we will do the outlet first which is an 11-foot section and then the inlet which is a 18.5 foot section.
Yes you have odd ball sizes when you buy this stuff used, but it didn't cost me $22 a foot either,
I got $120 into the culvert so far, that's a little over $4 a foot,
and at least the second section has the female end still on it.

Just make sure the 18" will carry all the water that comes through there. You only want to do it once!
But if you get that road so it doesn't wash out you won't get near as much seat time.

Boys afternoon at the the deer land, planting food plots.
Got the plots planted and one of the guys that hunts with us has an eleven year old. Drove his first tractor, should have seen his eyes when I ask dad if it was ok to let him drive her back to the truck. We kept her in H2 and he had a ball back through the fields to the truck.

Removed the last of a fallen tree from Hurricane IKE!
Cut the rotted trunk into sections and chained them to the bucket for removal.
Then to my surprise was able to completely remove the root wad and level the area the tree had once stood.
Changed the engine oil and topped off everything else.
Got an LED light off ebay for about $13 delivered. Installed it on the front of the hood. It works better than I dreamed. Its made for AVT's and 4x4's so it is pretty tough and weather proof.

Installed new belts on the flail mower.
Turns out the factory ones were too long and couldn't be adjusted, was slipping from day 1.
After not finding the issue for a year went to another shop and they sold me 37" belt instead of the 38" that's in the manual.
(they had measured all the flails that come in regulary to find out the correct belt size themselfs).
Adjust rights in the middle of the adjustment, thing is 300% better now.
FFS, why do manufacturers do shit like that. Was moving 2ft and up weeds and grass right after, no hesitating, no slipping. What a beast.

I bushwhacked the extension of Spring Valley Road, and then I bushwhacked a couple other pieces, one near the creek that I call "the bottoms". After that, I put the drawbar piece on the 3 pt hitch and went back to the bottoms with a trailer, hauling generator, chain saws, and other stuff. I chopped up a bunch of stuff with the electric chain saws,and then came back to load it all up.
The drawbar attachment that lets me haul trailers with the Bx has saved me so much effort. Right now I can't live without it.

Used the loader bucket to help sort out tools stored in a 5 gal. plastic bucket. Lazy way to do it.
