Not what I want to be taking pics of

Well we started chopping yesterday and it was a little rough, we are trying out a merger and it wasn't working. The preasure washer guy was here to service the p.w. and after I got done milking I went over to hoe back the calves, looked out the window and I saw smoke, like someone was having a campfire. The p.w. was on fire! Nice!

Today they were moving from one field to another and this is what happened:

The tire from the dump cart snapped right off and rolled into the pond. It is a loaded tire-which means it has calcium and water in it so the dump cart doesn't lift off the ground when you dump into the truck. It was really heavy.So Kyle and Ryan switch places so Ryan can man handle it out of there. I am so thankful that God gave us very strong boys.Finally they got it up enough to get a chain around it, now they have to get it into the bucket. Not so easy! Remember it is heavy!Wait Dad your phone is ringing- it was the salesman from the equipment dealer telling us that a friend of ours just walked in and said we could use his dump cart till we got ours fixed. Isn't God good, what are the chances that our friend would come into the parts place just as he was on the phone with Dennis. That is only a God thing. Ok back to work- we need to get this out of here before we can go get the borrowed wagon. Three cheers!! This is where it is supposed to be! As you can see it snapped right off at the  body. I am so thankful he wasn't going down the road. He had just pulled off the road when this happened. That is also a God thing! Anyway we are back in business because of great friends. Well must go get ready for afternoon chores. Write more later.
