Been rockin the Oranges most of the day. Making holes for fence posts to unloading and moving material. I'm hoping to get the cows moved to the new pastures by this wknd. I need to place an order for farm diesel, filling up by jugs sucks.

Still watering trees. Finished that and used the loader to dig out some rocks from the pile and put them in the dump trailer for a culvert project this weekend.

What I did to my Kubota last night, I do not recommend. Not my tractor, but my Rake. Was raking hay as night fell and had turned round to head back to the barn and didn't see that the curtain was in the weeds. Well it snagged something much stronger then the steel it is made of and bent the guard and pole the curtain hangs on.

Good thing for KTAC

Broke in a brand spanking new King Kutter landscape rake from TSC. I only wonder why I waited so long to get one.

Used the M today to clean up 3 piles of gravel left over from the home construction then used the M to get the chain harrows out of storage and moved them to the north pasture. Removed approx 1800 feet of electric fence and cross fencing now that the horses are in their fall pasture. Grabbed the L3902 and rotary cutter and cleaned up 2 acres of the west pasture in preparation to fall harrow. Nothing exciting enough for pics but was a beautiful sunny 19C day to get some chores done.

I got worn out just reading about that stroke of work you did today.

Cut some firewood this afternoon. Wild Cherry. Carpenter ants had apparently setup shop inside.

Those miserable things have destroyed a large percentage of my cheery and locust trees. You don't know how bad the destruction is till a tree breaks or fungus breaks out. Locust is great firewood but it is near worthless after the ants start the rot inside. Just a week ago a cheery tree that appeared good cracked and will fall after it breaks down those that it is leaning against, it is too unsafe to attack it with a chainsaw.

I'm hoping being caught without a developed nest this late in the season, they won't survive Winter. I'm gonna have to remember to get some spray before I cut firewood in the future. At least if there is a Cherry tree on the list. :giggle:

The bestest yellow jacket spray EVER:

And my policy (scorched earth, literally) regarding the little creatures from hell.

Did I ever mention how much I HATE yellow jackets??

I think I stirred up this nest with the tractor and the missus was moving some brush nearby. One got her on the eye lid. As luck would have it, it’s the first nest we found this year (in a spot I’ve run over many times recently. Turns out, it’s the first time she’s ever been stung by a jacket. She claims it hurts. They just really piss me off. Doc says it’s the pheromones of the sting that trigger my rage. Not allergic at all, but sure go bonkers when they sting me.

A rock that is poking up 2” out of the lawn just enough to get my attention is usually much larger than it originally appears. 🤷🏻‍♂️

Traded my three point phd for a skid steer mount SA10. Poked a couple of holes and I think this is going to be much more plesant to use.

I can already say that it's 110% better to hook/unhook.

Ok, I’ll bite. The LX3310 has the same pump/flow rate as the LX2610, right? Did you use the 3rd Function valve to run the auger or did you use rear remotes? My understanding is that hydraulic PHDs tend to need a bit more flow than the LX series has available on the FEL. A long time friend of mine has a Grand M and absolutely loves his QuikTach PHD, but he ran hoses from the rear remotes to get the flow it needs.

Damn things do hurt. This is probably peak yellow jacket season. They have a very interesting life cycle, but I still hate them. Probably wouldn't do for me to be waving a flame around while under attack.🔥

I hooked it up to my third function. This one is designed for the BX/B/LX lower flow rates. Our soil is hard packed from almost no perception and it dug in slow amd steady with the 9" auger. It won't break any speed records but, it won't break my back hooking it up. The true test is once we get some moisture in the ground will it turn my 24" auger.
