    Love watching you guys playing in the mud. Never gets old watching the Geoff and Chris show. Great idea for fixing the flooding issue with the road. I'm convinced you are definitely correct about Yanmar makes the best mini. Has plenty of power and very easily moved from one location to another. Hopefully, you had a great birthday, Chris.
