August 4, 2018

Back to the Fifty Acre Wood today, and I'm bringing reinforcements, Travis. We started our day by driving the buggy around the perimeter, showing Travis the fence, and also installing trespassing signs that have been stored for years. Once we finished hanging the signs we had we returned to the barn and got the mower hooked up to the tractor. That took a while, I need to figure out how to get the tractor and mower paired easily because that took us about 30 minutes to get hooked up. I reviewed the operation instructions with Travis then I let him try out mowing a small section.


He did good, didn't stall the big rig or run over any stumps. Okay, I pushed him out of the seat and took off to the east side of the property to finish the mowing from last week. I left Travis at the barn to assemble and figure out the herbicide sprayer while I went mowed.

When I got done mowing what I could or felt like mowing, I returned to see that Travis has finished the assembly and was preparing to take it out for spraying. I was tired and hungry so it was a good time for lunch break.

After lunch we packed up and lubed up the machines for the next work out next week.
 I don't understand how to access the grease fittings for bush hog exactly, so I will have to YouTube it.

Duration: 5hrs
mower: 2hrs
