>>>Biggest problem is that there is no hydraulic lift for any of the equipment<<<

I was thinking that somewhere I saw a hydraulic add on for them... I know, just what you wanted to hear...

Well, he could mount a tractor seat up front on the front axle, that way you could ride to the other end... LOL

Togetherness is such a wonderful thing... ;^)

Believe it or not, at this point, with my knee replacement, the hydraulic add on or even the mounted tractor seat is something I could opt for.

On a different note, the grandson showed up today as he often does on a Sat. A.M. to help Gramps. First thing, Gramps wanted to pick up about a cord of wood left by the power company clearing trees that endanger their lines. Some of that wood was pretty big stuff so grandson got a good workout. Then Gramps asked me if I wanted more seaweed and of course I did with an extra strong back to help out. While gramp went to get shovels, pails and the trailer, grandson asked me if the seaweed smelled real bad. I told him I didn’t think so as it wasn’t real ripe yet. Well, when we got to the beach, it being a Saturday and a lovely day, the “out of staters” were out in force and very curious as to what we were doing with that awful stuff. One gentleman asked me if I ever got used to that smell. I told him it didn’t smell bad to me and not half as bad as pig manure. Anyhow, on the way home the grandson told me he almost lost his breakfast a couple times while emptying his bucket into the trailer, but was real proud of himself for staying with the chore and not quitting.

I noticed his stomach wasn’t too upset to enjoy the ham sandwich with home-made bread and the apple pie we had for lunch.
