We sold the farm across the road and turn it over this spring. It has a big shed where the 8430 and lots of implements are, so we are putting up a 60x80 to replace it at the farm. The grade drains well, but in that 60 foot width it goes from on grade to three feet of fill (using clay and asphalt millings). I have spent every waking hour the last few weeks hauling clay up from the pond cleanout piles with the 886 and 74 Ford grain truck. That doesn't even count the 25 loads of millings from the quarry 40 minutes away. My hips are so riled up I can't hardly walk! Maybe those boys are right about hydro loader tractors!!
Clutch in - into the pile, clutch out - out of the pile, clutch in - to the truck, - clutch in - back to the pile, clutch in - into the pile. Repeat eight times. Idle tractor. Get in truck. Clutch in, granny gear. Rinse and repeat. Lordy. I can hardly walk. I saw the back doctor yesterday and he promptly booked me for more injections. Wonder why?!
I need to get the transit back out and shoot it today and see if I am ready for millings. I think I am. I hope. I want to go back to using a loader for nice things like feeding cows!
