Another working week in Cullman, We drove over to Tuscaloosa to visit Becky, Jan, and Oakie with the addition of Owen and Paula. It was a pleasant visit. Then up to Cullman Via 20/59. There I accomplished a few things on my list. The whole of the pastures needed mowing. I was able to get that done over the first 2 days. I put a tube in the John Deere mower, painted most of the rusty spots on the shop roof, I got the hole auger up out of the dirt, attached it to the 284 and got some holes dug for the hammocks. I swapped the new brake cylinder on the 284 and now have functioning brakes on it. We mixed a lot of herbicide and set up the sprayer in the 6 wheeler. I moved the old zero turn up to the shop and discovered an oil leak from the bottom seal. That's another project for me. I tried to improve the ditch around the barn but the ground was very soggy. Finally Thursday morning I changed the engine oil and hydraulic oil in the 284 tractor. The waste oil was far too much to pour up so it wound up in the 55 gallon barrell.
