So.....I ran the Massey 175 for a few hours today. Used it with the 7' bush hog. No problem at all, except for the damn thing having literally no brakes. I watched a few videos on repairing the brakes, seems simple, and inexpensive. I'll have to cut hay before I fix the brakes though. Maybe I can get it done without getting killed.

Is this your 3rd cutting? Seems like you are making more hay this year than past.

No....second. I'm just late.

I am making more hay though. I leased a pretty good sized piece of ground to go with what I was already doing.

I tend to agree.

It's just a damn sad situation we're in as a country at this point though. Can't trust the news, can't trust the government, no idea what to believe anymore.
Just live your life and ignore the "news". If you must be informed get rid of cable and go back to local.

Getting better
Still weak and short of breath on exertion
She doesn’t go back to work until Monday if she feels up too it
Best thing is they consider it work related so she is getting paid [emoji106]

Thanks Randy

Yeah.....but this is America. Here the employer is more important than the employee.

Very sad, and very true.
In days of old a company fought for their employees and cared for them.
In return workers stayed in their position till retirement. Not so much that way today.

Don’t forget personal freedom too. I wonder if there is any truth to the numbers I am seeing reported linked to Sturgis. Several sources are reporting 250 000 new cases can be traced back to Sturgis with a estimated cost to health of $12 Billion. That’s just insane!!!

I read that today. Makes you wonder if they will retract that reporting like so many others concerning stats and the virus.
