Tractor Work and Visiting Friends

Since the tornado warnings and severe weather about a week ago, there had been driftwood and debris strung across all the hay fields. Friday the fields had dried enough that I could drive the tractor through them without making ruts. I used the scoop on the tractor as a grader blade and pushed most of the debris back to the creek banks. The two fields across from the house took about 4 hours to clean up the mess. Saturday, I drove the Mule through the fields and hand picked the stuff I had missed with the tractor the day before. I let Daisy run around the fields as I was picking up the smaller pieces and putting them in the back of the Mule. Daisy has learned to stay near the Mule or where ever we are working. We don't let her loose near the highway though, she seems clueless when it comes to stopping in front of the Mule and I don't think she would do good with the highway either. Donnie Cox had left a message on our answering machine and told us they were at their place near Byrdstown, so I gave him a call and we told him we would stop and eat and then be over to their place a little after 7 PM. Stacey, Linda and I left in the HHR and after eating we drove to Bonnie and Donnie's cabin near Eagle's Cove. We talked and heard stories about the things going on in IN and we told them about what had been happening down here. We stayed till around 10 PM then said goodbye, and drove home.
