My custom haying guy got hurt, and like an idiot I thought, how tough could it be to ride a tractor and mow and rake? Wellllllllll, it's been 25 years since I put a lot of time on a tractor. I put 10 hours on Sat., 12 hours on Sun., and 8 on Mon., on a tractor. I would rather clean a sewer with my teeth than do that again. I'm so sore and tired that I slept till 7:30 AM on Monday. I usually get up at 4:30 and am ready to go. I knew I was out of shape for farmin', but one forgets just how hard a farmer works. I always thought when I retired I would help my buddies farm, but they better not count on that, it's too hard. Kudos to tractor drivers, you have a fan in me. gs
