Cleared pastures; tractor fever.

After obsessing over the ticks I was finding on the dogs (I had run out of Advantix) and doing some research on these nightmarish pests (totally new to this native North-westerner), I advised Anthony that we needed to bush-hog the pastures to help control the little buggers.





 The next day Mr. Ray from Craigslist came out with heavy equipment and spent half a day with Anthony clearing and cutting while Stella and I went to a birthday party in the city.

Ps. This may be TMI but the dude had camouflage  underwear. Now THAT'S a country boy.

               


 

                              How cute is Anthony on heavy equipment?

Here's the beautiful result! Sue especially seems pleased.

Now I have tractor fever and can't get this country song out of my head.
