    Flippin through the owners manual of our sickle mower. Hard to believe now we used these to cut hay till the mid 90's, when we finally got a rotary cutter. I never knew all the attachments were available.

    Pickin up hay in Montana the other day, and the farm hand told me they could cut 450 acres a day, and bale/stack all of that in a day.

    40 acres makes a long day around here in the hills.

    Anyway, flippin through the pages and sure nough we might have a celebrity here that modeled for JD way back. It'd be a good enough likeness for a wanted poster for sure.

    Had enough #### fun for the day. It must be a law in Texas to drive 10 under the speed limit in the left 2 lanes at all times. Make sure to run your high beams all night long as well. Safety first :rolleyes:

    I've never been through a blizzard like that before. More or less idled the whole way. I tried taking a dirt backroad to get off the highway and that was dumb. At least there was enough traffic on the highway that you could kind of guess where the road was. No BS at times you couldn't even see the glow of the brakelights until you were 40 or 50 feet away from the vehicle ahead of you. Tail lights were only visible from about 30 feet.

    Driving in yesterday most cars were off the road on the outsides of the corners. They probably didn't see the turn and just went straight ahead and off the road.
