Farm life and equipment

Started the morning with finishing the 50 hour service. I got my other filter so changed both. I also checked the front diff, and added 2 quarts and it still didn't flow out the check port, but it's right at it. I had read multiple posts on FB groups about the fronts being way low at delivery, mine was.

Then I got about half the cutting I needed to do done.
 
Most of my storm cleanup activities were posted in the Helene cleanup thread, but this crosses over. Finally got the giant tree, stump, and root ball out of the way and it's starting to look like a container pad.

Just got back from the first real road/fire break cutting of the year. I found 2 more lines blocked by trees that I hadn't been down since Helene. That makes 5 blocked trails and 3 of them will need bigger equipment than we have.

Having the right equipment and a few good helpers makes all the difference. This road had been blocked since Helene, but a couple weeks ago we bought a new chainsaw and its cool enough to get to work. One road cleared, 3 or 4 to go. But not today, time for lunch and football.

Two more woods roads cleared this morning, then finally took out the two trees that made it difficult to get the trailer alongside the container.
