Got it stuck!

Should have gotten a pic, lol. Ground is so wet (we had over 11 inches of rain in April, normally we have 3-4) and grass was tall. I avoided the standing water but the ground was so saturated I sat there spinning on top of the ground.

A little creative tugging and high-end acrobatics (to keep the seat switch from killing the engine) and I finally got it out.

Glad I was wearing my wadin' boots!

Our yard has had some major wet spots. The house next to me is up for rent and they're running a new sump pump line to the drain up by the road. For the time being they have a plastic pipe running above ground towards the drain but some of the water is going to the edge of our yard. I'm glad I have rear ags. The super looks like I've been mudding with it.

Growing up I always poked fun at the neighbor across the street for keeping his tractor spotless and blowing the cutting deck out with compressed air when he is through cutting. Now I understand though, he is a green machine guy and that is his baby. He was the one to inspire me to get something worth fixing up and taking care of, even if I can't go out and buy a top of the line job every few years like he does.

Fired up the smokin 73 and took it down to see the bee hives. That tractor steers very easy and is very tight (responsive) in the steering. Weather was just around 50 degrees and all the bees were in the boxes. Just made it back to the sugar house when it ran out of gas. I think it would look great with a big set of wide ag tires tucked under those round fenders. Hope to have the 147 home tomorrow after noon. Trying to decide if this one will go to Eric (son). He needs a mower. This tractor comes with a 48 inch deck and a spare damaged 42 inch deck and a front blade.
I know, I need to get some pictures posted too.
Pulled a tire off the front of the 86 and took the tire off. Rim is a little rusty. wire brushed it and may try to put in a valve stem and buy some new skins for it.
Regards,
Chris

Today I finished installing the spring assist on the 1250, put the plow on, then did some garden plowing.


Even with no weight, the 1250 did really well with it!

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
