And It Wasn't Even Friday the 13th

(This post provided by Boyd, including the photos, story and the BIG, FAT LIES about the wife's willingness to help!)
It happened it at 9:00 at night. I had spent two days getting the two fields ready to plant before the storm came in.  The ground seemed dry, but wouldn't you know it!  I found a muddy, wet section.  Knowing that my wife was asleep and wasn't willing to help me anyway, since she hadn't called me in hours, I knew it was up to me to get myself out.   The tractor could still move backwards and forwards, so I rocked it. Since I was attached not only to the seedbed maker, but also the harrows, I ended up driving over the top trying to get out.  The harrows were buried in mud and required a separate tractor to come pull them out of the mud. I finally got everything straightened out, but there will be a hole in the field there for a season or two  I just wish that I was married to a wife who loved me enough to come pull me out 









It looks like he is going really fast, but it is just over 6 miles per hour.
