That's the truth. Sometimes. When it's 95° and the humidity is up, I could think of a thousand things I'd rather be doing than slinging bales. Up until I was 15, I ran the haybine, then the rake, but the old man always put me in the wagon when it was time to bale. You do a thousand bales in two days in that heat, good Lord all I could do was stare at the river, thinking about my friends having fun. Well, thinking about the river and friends until the kicker hit me in the head with the next bale, then I was right back to the suck. Now that I'm the old man, I've come to enjoy it.

If you leave your bucket on roll it up . Lower close to ground lay the brush down when running it over makes it easier for your rough cut mower to go over . Plus help keep your tractor grill from getting stab by the brush .

I go through in a month what I used to use in a weekend for fuel. Great thing about the old Kubota diesel engine that's in it, I can burn up my waste oil in the tank by mixing it in with the diesel fuel, so it stretches that diesel even further. With all the vehicles I have to do oil changes on, this goes a long way in fuel savings. Love what you guys are doing.

It from "My lawn looks like crap" to "sitting in a chair in the shade realizing it looks pretty good after a few hours of going back and forth in the hot sun. I mow really slow so I get the most even cut I can. I vacuum my carpet the same way. Faster may take less time but methodic and thorough yields better results.
