In this video, we fire up the old girl and head down into the woods to load up a load of firewood. It was cold and windy today so the heated cab felt pretty good.
It was also nice having a little bit more tractor to hold back the load coming off of the big hill and down the logging trail. It has thawed just enough to be greasy and the big hill is nothing to fool around with. This hill can kill.
Once loaded, I dropped the tractor down into third gear, idled the throttle back, locked in the differential lock and headed down. Although a couple times it felt like it wanted to break loose into a slide, it never did. Very relieved to be down and off the hill when I was done.
We had a guest to this video, sort of. BOTA BOB sent me some stickers to put on the door of my quonset building. We pay a little tribute to his channel
in this video. Be sure and check out BOTA BOB's channel and tell him "Tractor Talk With Gary" sent you.
Thanks for watching. See you for the next one.
Life is good. Even better in the tractor seat.
