Hoggin' it

Nothing ever happens quickly here. We bought a brush hog tractor attachment back in June from Farm and Fleet and started to put it together right away. There were a lot of pieces. We quickly ran into trouble. One of the arms wouldn't attach and sure enough, one of them was too short. Bob had to go back and exchange the part. Then we needed a very big C clamp to hold the parts so we could bolt it. Then we couldn't get the shaft to attach to the body. Two weeks ago (8/19), with some sandpaper, paint scraping and brute force, Randy and Bob got it on and adjusted.

I got home a little early today so Bob decided to try it out on pasture 3. In no time flat, it was cut. I think Bob was enjoying his tractor.

Update on Banjo:

Every day we are spending time with him, he gets braver about being walked up to and petted. He's a bit spooky about a lot of little things so it's going to take some time.
