The Grass is Growing

. . . on the bush-hog?


After John finished mowing at Smith Farm a couple of weeks ago, monsoon season hit. Between the rain and the sultry weather, we didn't have a chance to move the tractor back home to the barn—until this morning. So, the tractor sat out in the open and nature took its course. The result: a crop of grass on the bush-hog. And elsewhere on the tractor, too.


Grass is growing in the tractor's tool storage area:


. . . and in whatever this part is called:


The crop didn't seem to affect how the tractor ran, though.

Now, we need a herd of little, teeny critters to graze on the bush-hog. Too bad miniature horses aren't that miniature.

You should borrow a couple of Kelly's Breyer horses and set them all up on it.

No doubt! It didn't take that grass long to grow. I suppose grass is better than other slimy critters growing on it.
