Sunday work?

I guess if you're having fun it ain't really work. We go to a cowboy church and they will be hosting a rodeo in less than 2 weeks. 2 weeks ago they had 6 tractor trailer loads of gravel dumped in the parking lot. It ain't been spread out yet, one reason was alot of rain last week. I offered to spread it yesterday after church and the preacher said please do! We took our fords down and a fellow church member brought his Kubota and we knocked it out in about 5 hours. I had a landscape rake on mine, my wife had the boxblade. And Harry's Kubota had a front loader. Today after work I'm gonna drop by a finish the water faucets around the arena so we can leak test the pipe and get ditch filled in.

Gramps ..... that gravel looks pretty white, well certainly white compared to what we might see up here. Not sure if you meant gravel or maybe coarse sand? How far is it hauled from? One more question, what exactly is a Cowboy Church? I see there is one up here locally and they run a little ad in the weekly paper.
 
That?s some pretty gravel for sure . I try not to do tractor work on Sunday but if you had the preachers blessing I?d not worry about it looks good . How?s the new rubber holding up
 
White gravel comes from the marble quarry about 10 miles from the church. Cowboy church is for everyone that just ain't 100% comfortable in a traditional church. We love it.
 
Grandpa and Grandma live in an area known for its white marble. Its called Alabama or Sylacauga marble. I am just on the edge of that belt.
 
Hey sv Cummins, love the new tires, but....sure can tell a difference without fluid in em. especially in that thick, loose gravel!!
 
Yes the weight is nice but it?s a pain when it starts giving you fits . Could always get a set or two of cast weights
