Slow, But Not Joe Slow

The postings have been slim over the last couple of days, the next few look like they will be just as spartan. I’ve got 90 bales of hay cut, raked, and baled in my front pasture. Not the little square pocket size bales, the 5X5 rounds. I’ll get them moved into the hay barn in the next day or so.

It’s slow going sometimes, but its slow because of the tasks, not because I’m ‘Joe Slow’ . Joe Slow you ask? It’s kinda/sorta like the little video below.

I’ve been busting my ass with the zero turn mower and weed eater again, this time around the cabin and near the creek. The ground is so steep in many places that it has to be cut by backing down the hills. A zero turn on steep grade (going face first) is nothing more than an uncontrollable skid. The picture below s about 3/4 of the way down to the creek from my cabin.

This picture was taken near the place the picture above was (I moved 20 yards or so to the right), Note how fast the land falls away from the cabin on the right side.

Finally, this is a picture taken up by the cabin looking down to the creek.

The point of all of this, if there is a point at all, is that cutting and weed-eating around my little chunk of paradise is time consuming and pushes other task to the rear burner. Thus: slow posting !

Thanks for bearing with me as I do my fall tasks.
