re: #60 ckkatz

We had a semi, loaded full with grain from our crop, sink up to the axles in our pasture once. We tried with our biggest tractor, which was big for us, but not on the scale tractors are now. We could not wiggle it. A neighbor, with one of those early huge, lime-green Steigart (?name) come down, and he didn’t even shift into low. Just pulled it on out to the road. We were certainly impressed. Not enough to spend the money on one (the equivalent of about a quarter of million today, I’m guessing).
