Got my tractor

Today after work we went next door to pick up our tractor: a 45hp 4WD diesel with a bucket loader. Best I could do was sit on it for a little while for long enough for Jamie to take some pictures. No immediate work to be done with it, but I am getting excited browsing the Tractor Supply attachments.

Some initial things on the list: a hay spear to manage round bales, pallet forks, trailer attachment…nothing big. After pulling and wrangling with hundreds of feet of fencing, it’s a little disheartening to see the wire unroller and stretcher listed. Wow that would have been a help. Our neighbor (the one who sold us the tractor) also still has a bunch of useful implements he says we can borrow or barter for: rototiller, log splitter, post-hole digger, hay rake, mower, etc.
