We had a big windstorm on May 8. Blew down lots of big trees on every fenceline on the farm. My son came over to help me clear the mess, and brought his Kabota, a nice little four wheel drive tractor, about 30 HP. He had to work the next day, and left the tractor for me to use.

This is the place! Bought
