My own version of Your Going to do what with that Tractor

Posted by Gibby on March 10, 2001 at 05:56:15 from (216.29.144.246):

As two two younger gentlemen were back filling my the basement to the new house, it seems that Bobcat 1 slipped off the edge into the trench - up against the side of the fresh basement wall. I guess figuring Bobcats could do anything, Bobcat 2 appearantly tried to pull Bobcat 1 out of the trench - for which he failed terribily - up to his axles/undercarrage. When I got there Bobcat 2 was trying inch himself back to the drive way with his bucket - a slow process and was tearing up everything in it's path. After talking to the two "operators" they informed my that they had called to get the companies bulldozer out the pull them out. I told them I had a tractor and we could probably save a lot of time if I tried. They both told me that there was no way tractor would pull them out. So I quietly walked in the equipment barn and picked up my heavy chain (walking past my JD) and jumped up on Bertha (My Farmall 300) and fired her up. Bertha must have been watching out of the window of the equipment barn, she fired up with only a half turn of the flywheel - with no choke!! By the way the wheel weights I had just put on, hadn't even had a chance to harden the paint yet. As I backed up to Bobcat 2 The "boy" started to laugh and informed me that we were going have a triple header - three stuck pieces of equipment. Never the less, we hooked up and I put the old girl in first with the TA on. To say Bertha did it with ease is a little bit streching it. But she did pull him out and I don't think she broke to much of a sweat. With Bobcat Operator two humbled, I turned my attention to Bobcat 1, he had her running already and was standing there waiting for the chain. Bertha really had to work on this one!! While controling wheel slipage with the brakes, the old girl pulled her guts out and slowly Bobcat 1 came creeping out. Pictures will be supplied as soon as my wife has them developed ( she had the digital camera and I could only find a cheap throw away to use)..
