Fords are almost as tough as you, Larry!
We enjoy your posts!

Larry. That looks good.
42 years ago I was using a boom pole on an 8N years ago to put a huge carved stone up on the fireplace base I had built as I was building our house.
This was not the family 8N I have now.
I blew the gasket at the spot where the top cover goes on the tractor.
I wound up putting two heavy poles from the ground up to the base and sliding the stone up using chains and pulling with the tractor.
Had to raise it up about 4 feet.

I'm impressed ! You didn't even have to move it in closer to the tractor.

That's a lot of weight, surprised your front wheels didn't come off the ground.

Good work. There is a certain satisfaction in doing the job yourself even if you do not have the fanciest equipment to do it.
