    Did not need the wood today but wanted to get the last of it out of the barn so used the new tractor to move it. That makes it handy as I can lift the wood with the bucket so I don't have to bend and my back appreciates that a lot. I also moved some other wood in back doing it the same way. I like it.

    Yep nice looking and useful tractor Savage. The loaders are great to have. I welded a couple of hooks on the bucket so I could lift things with a chain.

    Well, Dennis....after seeing this post, I am sorry to tell you that your "Yooper card" is being considered for revocation.

    Anyone Yooper goes through a heating season with only about 36 splits of wood left over is just....well, not a Yooper! :picard:

    Sad day, indeed.

    Hey, did you get a new tractor or something? :cool:

    But Dave you have to consider that I had also taken 2 big loads out of the barn and put back with the other stacks because it just is not needed! Besides, that was all oak I took in back so we'll use that next winter.

    I'd have to borrow a neighbor's wagon or a big trailer.

    Everyone will be checked at the gate to his property for permanent markers. There will be no signing of the bucket while at the GTG!

    NO EXCEPTIONS!
