Spreading manure. We had almost 55 degrees here on the weekend, rained most of yesterday, and now 15 and snow,lol. The field was frozen enough to carry the tractor today so I hauled out 2 loads. Crazy weather continues.

Where are you from? Sounds exactly like mid-Minnesota today.
P.S. I love my heat houser. Wouldn't do without it.

I had to take mine off the 1850 yesterday to get at things to put a new water pump on. I think I'll leave it off. It's in the way of climbing on and off to grind feed. Quick as I get that power steering cylinder put in the White I'll use that to haul manure anyway. Should have fixed it today,but they were calling for rain that hasn't shown up. Thought it might be a good day for a nap. I gave up on that by 1:30 and went out and did some odd jobs.

My dad used to leave the windshield off unless he had far to go in extreme cold snow plowing. The visibility through that plastic was not great, especially on a cloudy, "white out" day when you can't tell the ground from the sky.

Love it...
Never spread !@#$ in the winter but lots of loads in August/September with AC WD45 when we'd clean up the big pile behind the barn after the oats was done. WD45 had a heat-houser and I got trained on plowing with that tractor with a 3-14 McCormick rope trip lift plow in circa 1977-78 when I was about 12 or so. Froze my butt off when going with the wind and it was blowing up my rear. Dad had a snow blower for the '45 so it didn't get used for chore work in the winter. Later got to run the 1980 white 2-105 with 5-16 plow and with cab/heater and it was a luxury in comparison.

I noticed the wind direction defenitely made a difference when I was using our farmall M in the fall with the heat houser. It was cozy and warm in my shirt sleeves but sometimes if the wind got up behind you it was chilly. Thing was wonderful most of the time though. We still have it and it only takes me about half hour to put it on.
