Hey Pullstart!   

 

That's some mighty flat country out your way in Michigan.    Looks like good ground, too.   I'll bet you would love to have some of those rocks and boulders EBinMaine has to contend with.  

 

I'll bet Eric dreams about flat ground like yours when he slumbers (he never sleeps - I heard he only gets drowsy and always has one eye open).  

 

Happy Halloween everyone!

 

Cheers!

Rylee (the little one on the beast of a Commando 800) is the crazy one that might explain why she needs a belt.  Jada is cautious all the time but still needed a belt! :handgestures-thumbupright:

Sure is... one of the first mods I did to it, long long time ago.  It’s got the silencer core from my Honda Shadow 750 welded into the top of it, so it’s rather quiet.

I'll gladly send you or anyone else these rocks for the low low price of you paying the postage.

:P

 

zzzzzzzzz zzzzzzzzz..... Flat ground......... zzzzzzzzz zzzzzzzzz....

 

We went to North Dakota a couple years ago.

Tooooo flat.

Just weird.

I like my mountains.

The girls and I were accompanied by my niece on a ride to grab some walnuts.  After we crush them in the driveway, we’ll bury small piles in the field and hope for some seedlings come spring time!

 

Those look like black walnuts:blink:. Are you sure you want black walnut trees in your yard?!?!?!? I have one in my yard & every other year I have to clean up after the darn thing. The pic below was after my first cleaning last year. By the time the tree was empty this 8' pick up box trailer was level full (yes to the top of the racks) with wall nuts. "Sell them" my friends have said, well if they were worth 5cents a ton I'd be happy to. Instead I take them out to my nephews woods & dump them.

In fact, last year was the last time that I will have to castrate my lawn. That tree will be history as soon as the ground freezes this year.

We got the walnuts scooped back up, and dug some holes out in the switchgrass that I planted this spring and buried random amounts here and there.  This is the back 2 acres of our property, and I’m hoping it’ll draw in more deer for a habitat.  In the past week I kicked up rabbits, plenty of feathered friends and today a decent 5 or 6 point buck.  I was too busy pointing him out to the girls to count his antlers!

These will become part of a blended habitat to many a wildlife some day... if all goes well!  I used to hope a deer would walk through my field, soon I’ll call them out of the back:handgestures-thumbupright:

If I learned anything today, it’s that I need to load my new tires!  I lost traction way too often in the field!

Man, I LOVE that Cherry Bomb.  Takes me back to the 70's when I was trying to hot rod an AMC Hornet.   Embarrassing when I look back at it, but it's all I had at the time.   "Run what ya brung," I heard someone say here recently.  

 

Great photos with the kids.  Keep them close so you know where they are.  Too much evil in the world today.

 

Cheers!

Luckily those big trucks are paying great attention around the house!  Most of them honk numerous times a day hauling back and forth, watching the girls on their “rigs”.  The fields were a bit soft all right....  Rylee’s chained up Screamin’ Jimmy had no problems though :handgestures-thumbupright:

Actually, according to this picture a mere hour or so after we picked up our first tractor, the Shadow was a WH Model. 😂😂

Those are precious moments with your kiddos Kevin.  They grow up so quickly and we need to capitalize on every minute we can with them.  So fun to be able to include the hobby :wh: as part of the fun.  

 

On the bright side with all those walnut trees, by the time they get big enough to produce any amount of walnuts, you’ll be a pretty old dude!:teasing-poke:  I planted a 3’ tall Walnut about 8 years ago.  This summer the tallest branches are about 7’ high above the ground.  By comparison I have a silver maple that I planted about the same time is now about 25’ tall!  However,  I have several family members that have mature walnut trees in their yards and know how much work they can be like Achto has shown!  Dan—I’m guessing that you will put that all Walnut wood to good use in the future after you harvest it

:eusa-think:

 

Kevin, Looks like you could use some more weight on putt-putt for sure.  That is some mucky stuff—I’m guessing by the look of it that you too have had a wet fall. It seems like the rain just won’t quit around here...

 

Thanks for the great thread—I’ve thoroughly enjoyed reading it and following along.  I see those big flat fields as great opportunities for dropping a furrow plow and turning that trash upside down:thumbs:
