Cold weekend for the king with freezing temps every night. Goin to freeze again tonight then warm up finally. Started by cleaning the hog pens. There are definitely going to be some improvements in the cleaning process before the next batch. Lol. Wasn't much, half a dozen wheel borrow loads, but I will get the gutters filled and the door enlarged so I can use the tractor or maybe a skid loader. Kings don't really care for manual labor. Lol.
Hogs are looking good, took the first three in on Sunday to become bacon. Hence today's funny. Lol
Found out all the butcher shops are now booked til next year. That is going to be a problem for my plans. Especially since I told my guys I was going to be a regular customer and had steers coming in the fall and was going to keep doing hogs. If I get pushed out now by all the Johnny come latelys I'll be a bit upset. Oh well, I'm sure life will go on either way.
Worked on my heavy disc that needed work. It had a broken blade and some bad bearings and it also had an issue with ridging on the sides I couldn't adjust out. So I pulled the front gangs and replaced the blade and cut down the last three blades to 22, 20, and 18" and put in 4 new bearings because that's all I could get
Works good now. Used it on some corn stalk ground.
With 24" blades and solid frame it really cuts. I went over that field twice and then once with the light disc and had a nice seed bed. Was a FULL load for the 1030 tho, it's 15' wide.
Tried to get the rest of the corn planted but snow put an end to that with a few rounds left.
Didn't get much moisture, maybe a quarter of an inch, so hopefully get the rest done tonight or tomorrow.
Once that's done I'll be after finishing the cattle fence, manure spreader, and getting hay equipment ready. Will need to spray weeds too. If there is no rest for the wicked I must be really wicked.

Today's Featured Article - Sunday Drives - by Cowboy. Summer was finally upon us here in Northern Maine. We have two types of industry up here, one being "Forestry" (Wood Products) and the other "Farming" (Potatoes). There is no shortage of farm tractors and equipment around here! I have been restoring old Farm Tractors for the past 6 years, and have found it easier and less expensive to hit all the auctions and purchase whole tractors for parts needed. My wife who works at a local school, and only has weekends and summers off, while on t
