[AT] Red tractor day

Dean,

It's good that you recognize that when Real Work needs to be done that  the Green Tractor is called
on!  :-)

The real art of conversation is not only to say the right thing at the right time, but also to leave
unsaid  the wrong thing at the tempting moment.

Subject: [AT] Red tractor day

Yesterday and today were comparatively warm and dry, so I spent quite a bit
of time cutting back the osage orange hedge, a very small portion of which
is visible at the far left side of this photo.

Hauling the cut branches to an increasingly gigantic burn pile is a job for
the red tractor rather than the green one, since the red one is easier to
get on and off, easier to back up, and typically has the little wagon
hitched to it anyway.   The green one comes out when I need the rear blade
or the rotary mower, both of which at times have roles to play in the long
process of cleaning up this hedgerow and the 5 or 10 yards on either side of
the main line of trunks that has become overgrown with the sprawling osage
branches.

Here's a view of an area I haven't yet begun to work on.  The thorn briars
that seem to accumulate under those branches are a nice added bonus, in case
I manage to escape most of the thorns on the young osage branches
themselves.
