Read in this morning paper, that in Gage county, south between Lincoln and Kansas, that some farmer had rolled his open station tractor while brush hogging. One wheel when into a washout. He is alive, critical condition, airlifted into the trama hospital here in Lincoln. On a happier note, well my son works for a excavating company. They are always moving somethng from job site to job site. Monday one of the fellow, not my son, had a backhoe loaded on a tamdem axle, dual wheeled trailer, pulling with a 5 yard dump truck. Heavy duty equipment. The trailer got into some loose gravel, and rolled 1 1/2 times. Hitch twisted round and round some way and stayed attached, dumptruck stayed upright. Hoe was still attached to trailer, 6 chains, 6 boomers. Trailer is junk for sure, cab on backhoe is crushed down, even the hood and stacks are crushed. Late model Cat. They"ll check it for broken castings, and see what insurance co says. Go from there. The good news here is nobody got hurt. Accidents can and do happen. Be safe.
