What a muddy mess. Rain coming so we had to put it up. 90 lb squares that should weigh 45. Ruts, wet tires, water squirting out everywhere when driving.

The tedder driver (me) stayed clear of the mud as I hit it while mowing. The rake guy didn't and nearly got stuck even in 4wd, the baler operator followed the windrow into the mud needing 4wd and front and rear diffs locked to get out. Bad sign when I show up to the feild and there is chunks of sod for a half mile up the road off the tires as he went to the next field.

Looking at the bales, a bunch of them are half mud. Poor baler.

First photo is my old man in the little 50 hp kubota backing a wagon of 90 lb bales out of a dry area of the field, just happened to cut through the sod when he tried to start after stopping.

2nd photo is just one from earlier in the year. Mowing some overmature pasture that didn't get used. Baled up fairly well with second cut coming up through it.

3rd photo, neighbour going with my MF and disc mower conditioner after her 489 ate both belts and split the reel drive pulley in two.
