I loaded my 2501 on the new, today 22' trailer. I will be mowing the bee yards tomorrow. (My BIRTHDAY)

They are all oak. We had 4 that were hollow and left them lay. The bears will take them apart for the grubs and ants. I unloaded 40 cinder block today that my son borrowed back in the spring. They were stacked on a pallet setting in a friends field. I backed up to the stack and started loading...

Bussey week so far. Our youngest son came over Monday to help me cut down dying trees and trees that the tops came out of in last Sunday night's storm. I finished up the down trees by my self yesterday. We dropped around 20 trees along our 6/10s of a mile drive. Cut them in to logs for the local...

I drove out and back our 6/10ths mile driveway marking trees that need to come down. We had a lot of wind sheer last Sunday night at 12oclock that took the top out of several and lots of large limbs. I have 15 trees that will be coming down Monday. Our youngest's son and I are going to cut them...

We had a lot of wind with the storm around midnight. I used the loader with forks and cleared the large tree limbs, and 2 trees across the drive. The rake was still on so I used it to clear all of the small stuff. Took about 2 hrs. We still don't have power. Wishing we had a good generator about...

I bought my L2501 with the bh77 in Dec. 2022 with .5 hrs. It now has 108 hrs. and 90% of that time is with the backhoe. My son's questioned the hoe but have since changed there thinking. It is probably the best piece of equipment I have ever bought.

People don't think about what could go wrong with fireworks. We stopped using fuse years ago. We use electronic controllers with igniters, similar to what is used with model rockets. We have around 70 controller's that ignite 4 or 6 items. They are controlled by a master unit that allows firing...

old paint I have been in the bottom of several hand dug wells. No ladder just climb down the rock walls. I did one that the over flow drain clogged up with silt. I was standing in 2' of water using an army shovel filling a bucket that was pulled up and emptied. When I got the drain open I just...

I use to get them for $20 from the sign co. I used them under bee hives to stop weeds. Now they must be made out of gold or something?

I planted part of my bee food plot two weeks ago tomorrow. Here is before. Here is after. Same tree just shorter. It rained the evening and next day after planting, but no rain since. We hit 107 yesterday and 108 today. We need some rain. I planted buckwheat.

Wish I had your skills. I broke a hose on my BH77 the first week I had it. Caught the hose with a root on a tree stump. I would like to see how you have it connected to the cylinder end?

I took a shower with my tractor today. I took a load of burnable items down to the next brush pile area and on the way down the hill I saw it was raining east of us about 10 miles away. The radar was showing things moving south/east so I didn't thing any thing of it. Guess what hit just after...

Did not use the tractor today but I did get a new to me attachment. I found a 9' tow behind disk for $175 on Market place. It needs some disks replaced but it came with 10 extra disk. I had to cut 6 bolts so we could load the front half on the trailer and set the back half on top. It was 351...

My L2501 turned 100hrs today. I have only had it 5 months. I have all of the filters and motor oil, still need the hydraulic fluid. Spent most of the day burning 2 large brush piles for a food plot for the bees. Here are a few pictures. These are piles 4 and 5. Forgot about the first 3. This is...

A lot of tractor time today. I finished grading the pond/catch bason. Then started another burn pile with trees we had already cut down. Dug about 6 stumps and pulled miles of wild grape vines out of the big trees. The one had a 6' root at the ground. There are still several more like that one...

I dugout the last few stumps holding me up from grading for a small pond in my bee food plot. Started some grading and then had to go to several meetings. I will be back at it tomorrow after removing 4 bee hives so I can replace the hive stand.

Don't expect honey your first year. Also they won't work the honey frames until the brood frames are drawn and full. Leave them off until the brood box has 3/4 full. Then spray the honey frames with sugar water to get them to start working them. When you get your bees Feed, Feed & Feed them 1-1...

I got some seat time today after 2+ weeks. I split an old ash tree and used the bucket to carry it to the wood shed. 4 trips. After that I put the new to me rock rake on and proceeded to rake the yard of tree limbs and leaves. Saved me days worth of work in less than an hour. Then I went down...

also, when the tech cut the old galvanized water service, the homeowners/ power went out...WTF? Power was overhead so what just happened. Then it dawned on me that we basically cut the house ground and he must have an open neutral somewhere. His power was "restored" when we bonded the ground to...

Yesterday I removed a tree stump with my BH and several ton of dirt from a location in front of our church. The water would get 6" deep on the floor level glass during a heavy rain. Today I went back with my bush hog and reclaimed part of the over grown outfield, the rest has to have some 6"...
