Been working on this tree line cleaning it up to gain 30 to 40 feet of field back. Dad just turned 75 and hes slower now and dose more bossing now and telling me how to do everything it seams. Oh well, Hes earned it. Still not done but I am getting after it and was doing good till I blew the lift cylinders on the Gehl 4400 skid steer, Oh well rebuild kits came in today so tomorrow while it raining I will rebuild them. In the mean time I have been using my Oliver 1550 and loader to move logs around. I had a 45 foot oak that the top broke off last year to take down, Big widow maker about 35 feet up that was making me nervies and with it about 6" from the fence and leaning the wrong way this was a tough one to drop. With the Oliver dad and a longggg chain it came down with a thud! Like the rest of them I have cut they get bucked and cut in have or just moved in one piece and piled up to be cut up latter. I have a guy coming sometime soon with his bucket truck to cut limbs out some trees that I don't want to fool with. Turning 50 I think I am getting smarter, Tree limbs ladders and chain saws and 20 feet up don't mix anymore! 10 years ago I would have went right up there and cut them out. Not NOW! They do say with age comes wisdom, I hope its true. Anyway 200 yard done and about 100 yards to go and this fence line is done. The picture of the Oliver you can see one of those 45 foot low limbs sticking out in the field that bucket boy can cut down, There is to many of them for my liking. The brush pile is about ware the last row was last year so I hope to get more this year. Rain or shine there is allways more work to do. Bandit

Today's Featured Article - Trailering Your Tractor - by Curtis Von Fange. One of the fun things of summer and fall are the parades and tractor shows that go on across America. Many owners of tractors travel long distances to attend these shows and they usually take their restored iron along with them. Safe trailering practices and inspections will ensure that the event is a fun one. A good habit to develop when using a trailer is to give that ‘quick look over’ before taking it on a trip. Before hooking up to it check the tongue for proper operation. The latche
