Sure enjoy both of my cab tractors.Cold A/C,stereo,and my new has front suspension.....
the best way to find the yellowjacket underground nests is just before dark. They will be returning to their hole from foraging. Follow them. Once you locate the main entrance look for an emergency exit within 8 to 15 feet. Block it off. Pour a quart of gasolene in the whole after dark and the fumes will end your problems.
We had a frost here in SE MN. I hope it wasn't killing frost because the corn isn't ready yet, it's a good 2 - 3 weeks out. My bluebirds left and the bird bath had ice in it. The frost will kill the weeds on the trout streams and that will make it easier to get to the streams and to fish. It should also turn the trout into their Fall feeding binge, which I haven't seen so far. :confused:Quote:

Unless you have one of those wussy cabs like JohnG, you'll either be bailing off the tractor and running for your life or you'll manage to get the tractor in road gear and set a new land speed record for agricultural equipment with implements attached.
I speak disparagingly of JohnG's tractor, but I'm just proud to have had a part in buying it for him, just like I feel a little surge of ownership pride when my dentist drives by in his BMW.
Haywire there's nothing like motocross jumping terraces at 15 mph on a tractor pulling a bushog while swatting bumblebees. I am convinced this event is where new cuss words are invented.
It sure doesn't look like this cool air we are getting, is making it's way down there.... sad to say
It's pretty cool here in North Alabama. Only in the 70's and has been in the 90's.
Bring on the cold I'm ready for hunting season
