    Great job Christy and Tim, you have to crawl before you can walk, slow and easy gets the job done as well. So for Christy going slow is just another step in the learning curve. I think I can speak for the rest of the followers as well here and say that we hope to see Christy doing more job on Johnny in the future with Tim ❤️❤️

    My favorite part about using a tractor that close to our house is when the people come running out and asking why the lights went off or when water just start spraying up. 😂😂 Lol
    Christy, you did a great job.
    I think you’re right about all the uses. I have a really screwed up back in horrible knees. I don’t know how many times I’ve actually had to lay down on the ground just to hand dig out a stump so I can get the chainsaw deep enough. Having compact tractor with that on there could do tons of jobs. Even stuff like moving a 20 or 30 pound rock, most people would think that’s no big deal you just grab it and move it but for me that could be a couple days in bed, having something like that good allow me to do so many things that I pay other people to do now.

    10 acre mid-Michigan property with lots of woods, stumps to dig out, tons of ice-age glacier activity rocks, trails to cut on uneven hilly terrain, piles of dirt and stuff to move around, gravel to deal with. I originally thought I didn't need a backhoe, but the more I think about it, the more this would be a handy tool.

    Christy's expressions after digging out bushes, is precious. Love seeing the kittens helping out. Christy is really doing good at learning how to use various tools and equipment. Someday Tim, you will come up to a casket sized hole in the backyard, and you will turn and ask Christy,.....what is this hole forrrrrrrrrr (voice trailing away) then thump, everything is dark. Next day,.....the channel is called TTWC. Just sayin'. She is easier on the eyes. (Ha!Ha!)

    Hey Christy. There is an app available for smartphones called 'Picture This'. Use it to take a picture of what ever plant you are unsure of and it'll tell you what it is/could be including the plant family. I use it with my landscaping company, find it really handy to have. It's a paid app but it gives you a few freebies every month.

    I love my backhoe on my 1025r. I'm always looking for excuses to dig. Just used it a couple weeks ago to dig up a giant stump for a friend. Took a couple hours of digging around the roots, a few cuts with a chainsaw on the big root shoots, and a Ram 3500 in 4x4 to pull it out of the hole and drag it out to the curb with a heavy chain (was simply too heavy for the 1025r to lift it or drag it).

    +1 Tractor Time with Christy. Good job on the backhoe. As far as the intimidation factor, just accept that you will make mistakes. That's how you learn. Once you accept that, you'll also be better at thinking of alternate ways of getting things done. If one way doesn't work, try another way. You'll also get more ideas for more projects.

    I have dug about 25 stumps and shrubs with my BX23S. The worse were the holly bushes that were over 20 years old and about 12 feet tall. Part of it was my fault. New at tractor work and trying to not make a big hole. I have learned from that experience. Just make the hole and fill it in later. Saves a lot of time.

Looked like you were doing a great job with the backhoe, does take a little while to get the hang of it. I was lucky that I had used a knuckle boom on a log truck that works a lot like a backhoe. Just like a set of pallet forks, you find all kinds of things you can use a backhoe for. Great video you two. Be safe!

    Tim, your yard is starting to look like an implement dealer
