I think it is awesome you can rip up your yard with the little Case. I need some of that done and I am pretty sure I am going to end up doing it by hand.

this is why we can't have nice things!

so we dropped everything off, picked up some plugs to remove the three point, dad said to take it for a spin to see if there are any leaks, and proceeded to tip it over into the pond

the ducks are still scarred

well my brother in law dropped this off today

He is up here running gas lines and the company want two crews, but he only has one crew right now, so they are parking it here, the one guy on his crew needs experience, so my BIL told him to go start digging, so he did

 

he made a path around the berm

and we started digging a trench to the side drainage to drain off the yard

tomorrow we get serious

removed the 3 point, capped the lines and controls, dad said to take it for a drive to check for leaks, drove it around the pond and came around the backside the same path that I travel with the lawnmower, center of gravity is not as low as the lawn mower, tipped it right over into the pond
