Damn. John Deere 5325 Turbo Diesel. Custom designed for this farm, hence the ultra thin rear tire.
That's Jerry
He walked us through the specs and operational procedures of this bad one for 2 hours. I know there are those of you that would like me to review our orientation point by point, but, alas, time and space prohibit. Hit me up if you'd like to know any particulars. A real bad machine.
I will give you my day in pictures as I'm beat and it's late.
Suffice to say the day was absolutely gorgeous. Weather especially. 60ish and sunny. Light wind.
Beds were fertilized, chisel plowed and rototilled. Rows were marked/measured. Peas were planted. Transplanted peppers in the greenhouse stood tall. Compost was spread... some by me. Laundry was done... finally!

(This is Peter. He clears rocks from the fields, among other things... voluntarily. At his age he's more active than most people I know...including me. Amazing)
This is what E used to direct seed the peas today.
Well, yeah, that's me just back from spreading compost on our lower fields in preparation of next week's planting. Need work on the front-end loading skills. Not bad for a first day. D made it look soooo easy though....
On and on. Dig.

You look pretty damn comfortable on that tractor....planning on any evening acoustic sets for the fellow farm folk or are your fingers too tired?
