2 weeks ago got broken bolts on planetary drive that needs repaired. Decided last night to drag back to the shed for the repair. Had the wife running the dozer. Thought you guys might get a chuckle out of this clown show.

At least you’re getting tractor time. Our ground is probably a month away from being dry enough to use equipment. It’s snowing and more is expected the next few days. At least the turkeys are entertaining us getting their freak on. Hoping your logger kept adequate distance from you. Stay well!

Yep, all good all healthy now. we got a dusting of snow last night with chance of few inches tomorrow. then back to warmer temps. New tractor broke down for major repair but I got spare tractor and lots of other stuff to do. One good thing at my place I should never run out of things to do. I get the last of my deer fence up at my last orchard and wife says I can start a new project. lol I will be clearing for power to run to new building and lots of road improvements along with some upgrades to the cabin heat. Getting up in middle of night to throw logs in fire made me feel too much like Charles Engles
 
It took me a few days but I read through your thread. Absolutely amazing property and even nicer equipment and new garage!

Yes. I’ll be getting power soon as I get the woods cleared. Tractor started having issues with park. Apparently it’s been common problem. They gotta split the tractor. 2 week job.

You should be rolling in fruit in several years. Just shows how much you can get done if you have your own post pounder. Do you have any bears in the neighborhood?
 
Had one big bear pass through Friday night. But it continued on past us.

More fruit in season equals more deer. More deer during the rut equals more breeding opportunities for older bucks. I have yet to see a property that had too many fruit trees and especially have not yet seen a property that had enough late holding fruit trees. Keep on planting!

Well I have most of my chores caught up this weekend so I finally got a shooting target and stand to be able to shoot 1 mile. It was very windy when I was able to shoot so I only got one hit out of 10 shots that I had. Elevation I was good with but the wind gave me a humbling but whooping. Can’t wait for a calmer day to do it again. The field that was new last year is growing good. It was a variety of things to get the soil better.

I circled the target so you get an idea where it’s at

1 whole mile Lenny? This again proves that whatever I'm doing you've got me beat by a mile. :) I enjoy shooting but have never gotten into long range shooting, but that sounds like a lot of Saturday afternoon fun. The guy that makes our trailers shoots out to 1800 yards and has some big deer to show for it, I enjoy listening to his stories. How much does the “Coriolis effect” affect your shots at the degree of angle you are shooting at?

I dialed in 6" for that, the wind affect was almost impossible to call. I need alot more practice. Im bolting side plates to it till I learn what the heck Im doing. The red paint dot was 1/2 MOA and were 1 moa apart. 122' of hold over. I havent had a challange shooting in a while so this has and will be a fun learning curve. This was with my 6.5 creedmoor 140 grain VLDs

I plowed, rock racked, planted warm season and native grasses on the bottom of my sawmill plot. I just sprayed the top have of that same plot so I can do the same process to it so my crimp roller is more effective. For a brand new plot I am happy how things have grown. I wish I had this equipment last year when I made this plot. Oh well. I didn’t so here I am. Killing a nice field. But it will be a lot nicer when I’m done.
