In honor of Labor Day I gave the 6080 the day off. It wears the loader so it gets used a lot!
Got the power washer out and washed the 185 and both WD 45s. Going to list Dad's 4230 for sale and wanted to clean it up first also wanted the 'Wide-Front' to be clean for the tractor ride next Sat**day.
Did some mowing with the CA, it fills the gap between garden tractors and brush-hog very nicely.

Used the 160 to finish mow 4 acres. Switched to the bush hog and chopped down the first two batches of picked over sweet corn. I normally disc harrow it over. I hope this is not a mistake, now I have a 2" layer of green silage, cant see the soil. Just trying something different. In 3 weeks I will disk it and plant winter rye cover.

Took the "Wide-Front" and the 3-16" 63 plow up to Marshalltown and wore some of the new off the tires. That ground was like concrete! Plowed for about an hour and a half, had a big ol' grin on my face.
This would have been done the week before at the Mid Iowa antique Power Assn. show and I would have posted about it to alert anyone interested. Because of the current situation the show was cancelled. Crops in the field still needed to be harvested and ground available to plow. Was deemed a club day.

Finished most of the re-wire and put in the new gauges in the dash. Now just have to put the dash back in and do a smoke test.

I took a one of my CA's with a plow and a WD45 to the Waterloo Farm Museum which is near Waterloo Mi. yesterday for their show. I think that I'll trailer the CA home and drive the WD45 home it's only a 11 -10 mile drive.

Friday, I used the D17 LP loader tractor to help load a rough '27 Allis 20-35 on the trailer which I sold to a young Allis enthusiast as a restoration project. Then used it to load one of my Allis side delivery rakes which he also bought to restore to go with his nicely restored WC. Today probably will use one of the WD's and bush hog to mow out along the west fenceline to keep it clear of brush and weeds.

Took the D-15 Series II (serial # #21563) on a drive around the farm today. I used 3rd low range this time for the entire trip. Takes longer instead of 3rd high range, however I enjoyed the trip more. Almost 2 hours to complete everything. It ran like a charm.

Mowed pastures with 180D. It handles a 15' brush hog like it isn't even there.
