Bon Homme County, South Dakota | What is the dumbest mistake you've yourself done on the farm, old or young? Might not be the easiest to admit here..ha
To start off, mine would have to be when I was 5 or so. Dad just bought a new 7810 and 535 John Deere baler. I hadn't saw one close up before. I was messing around in the shed, and somehow the tractor was parked just right where I was able to pull the pin out from the baler. Right after I did that, mom called me, and I left without even thinking about putting it back in. Later that night, I heard dad go out to the shed, and all of a sudden, BOOM. New baler dropped right on the cement shed.
Can't remember a time seeing Dad that mad. |
