The PLAN was to go out and check the oil pressure on the combine with the new mechanical gauge BUT the driveway on the farm house needed to be plowed and the lane back to the barn from the service gates also. Snow really deep and really wet. This snow was completely unplanned for so I had to get the log splitter off the 300U and put the fast hitch blade on. Of course the 300U battery was a little weak, so when it fired up and stalled it was not willing to start again. The two Chebbie trucks have side mount batteries and are hard to jump from so I niggled these out of the way to get the other utility out. It has 3 pt and my 3 pt blade was 20 miles away at the other house SOOOO I used the one tractor to jump the other. The 300U had flooded but I managed to play with it a bit and FINALLY got to plowing.
The fun part in all this was the ominous rumble coming from the roof of the shed as the snow moved. If you ran around to the side and watched it looked like a glacier slowly crawling over the edge of the roof. When it got over about 18" it broke and about a ton of snow fell. By the time I got done plowing I had had enough. Darn snow is so deep I can't pick the corn anyway. I'll check the pressure tomorrow.

The golden corn ripens well and early, the stoking, stacking,.... the drawing in with the tractors and trailers and a few buck rakes thrown in, and possibly a heavy horse. It would be a great day for the collies and the terrier dogs, rats and mice would be at the bottom of the stacks so the dogs, would have a busy time hunting and killing, all the corn was gathered and ricked in what we c
