Bennett and his brother have a bulldozer man coming………maybe sorta kinda halfway for the last two weeks. That’s redneck for, “he’ll be here when he gets here. Suits me just fine. I want to get the T-posts out of the front fence row, then have Mr. Bulldozer obliterate the fence row.
So I sauntered up to the front on my 23 HP tractor, if a tractor saunters….. I cut clips off the posts I could get to. I chained on the front end bucket, chained the post and raised the bucket. It stopped. I lowered the bucket and raised it fast. It stopped. I tried several more times. Uhhhh…….. Nope. Not happening.
Undaunted I tried several more T-posts. Nope. Bennett came by saw the problem and went home for his tractor. Oh yeah! It yanked them right up. I did the grunt work, he flexed his fingers on the controls. The brush, briars and trees got so thick we couldn’t get to the posts. Plus the week before he bent the front cylinders and they were spurting hydraulic oil, so we quit.
Today Bennett and Peggy came over. He chainsawed the brush and I crawled through the briars to cut the clips on the posts. His chainsaw quit on him. This fence is whupping us! Got some more posts to cut the clips off of, when we can saw our way to them. He wants the barbed wire, it’s in good shape. I’m real happy for him to have it, because he’s willing to pull the T- posts out so he can pull the wire.
