    She did great. I could never dream of my wife getting on the tractor. It took me a while figuring out the bushhog cut heights. As yourself and several people have said, keeping that wheel rolling on the ground will keep you from a sore back after a day of mowing. Also, have you filled the tires with antifreeze and water for extra ballast yet. Look into it. It will help. Have a good one from east Texas

Bit of a pro-tip, buy some "clip-on bucket forks" and go get some pallets from somewhere. Putting things on pallets is SUPER handy, also nice to load and unload things off the back of a pickup.

    Your "From neglected to beautiful" video came up this morning and after that I watched a few more. Then subscribed. Your attitude and approach is really commendable. There are and will always be, people who are mean and snarky. You handle them well and also take sound advice and ideas with humility. A rare combination.
    You guys have taken on a huge project- it will be wonderfully satisfying as each goal is met- learning as you go.

    • @livingon80
      @livingon80  Рік тому +2

      We got the cattle a little prematurely. We realized some of our fencing was not secure enough for them so they went to another farmer. We don't have hay baling equipment, but we plan to once we've restored the land and get livestock again!! If you have any tips or suggestions, we'd love to hear them! Thanks for watching! 💗 Allison

      You are right, but on tall grass and weeds if we try to mulch with the 5ft bushhog on the little 1026R, it will bog it down. That's why I have the front end of the bushhog lower than the rear, so it discharges out the back and has less strain on tractor. Thanks!
