Green Acres—Farming is the life for me! (theme song from the old TV show)

Tractors are easy to maintain—use the correct fluids (and greases) and change them at appropriate intervals. No different than motorcycles—you already have the tools you need. Kubota diesel, I assume—you made a good choice!

Green Acres is the place to be.
Farm livin' is the life for me.
Land spreadin' out so far and wide
Keep Manhattan, just give me that countryside.

I will treat the tractor like my previous aircraft…

i.e. - I will leave it to the tractor experts.

Farmer’s Equipment in a Elida has been awesome to me.

The loader pivot points need to be greased periodly as do the spindles for the front wheels. Every time you use the rear mower, grease the universal joint on the shaft and the spindles of the mower.

Grand L60 Series. L4060

I am definitely impressed with Kubota.

You guys crack me up. I’ve been singing that Green Acres theme song myself! Super excited about this.

Wow. Please upload a picture of Eva Gabor so I can remember my faded youth. By the way, my dad served in Italy in WWII alongside Eddie Albert. They went out on patrol one day with a whole lot of other guys. Only my dad and Eddie Albert made it back alive.

That's why I ride a Guzzi.

Leave it to Scott to find photos on the internet!

No, New York is where I’d rather stay…

Finally! Hello “Shangri-La.”

Our new home is ours! Yesterday my tractor and implements came. That was exciting. Installed the internet (priorities, right ?)

Michael packed his zero turn mower into my little trailer and asked me to bring it. 2 minutes after I got it there…


He is OCD about his landscaping and grass and didn’t dismount his machine for 6 hours…he said he hasn’t found his pattern and rhythm yet but he will and reduce that to about 4 hours …


Today I start the humongous “Move in”. Should only take 1-2 weeks of work. Hopefully.

Moving 15 motorcycles is a Pain In The Ass!

Yeah my heart really bleeds for you LOL.
Congrats on the move in.

So, I think I underestimated the sheer size of this place. 10 acres is a lot.

In my opinion, it took way too long for Michael to mow the property the day before yesterday, so, what’s the best way to endear your significant other to you especially after you’ve been on a motorcycle shopping spree for a few months now?

A brand new gigantic 72” deck, diesel Kubota commercial quality mower!

I prearranged it with Farmers Equipment, and I brought home a new super sharp Kubota ballcap. It’s really nice but still, just a hat.

After telling Michael that I brought him a present, when I pulled out the hat, he looked sad but smiled. He said, “You buy a new tractor and I get a hat. That’s nice…”.

He went to try on his hat in the bathroom mirror and I saw the delivery flatbed with the mower come onto the property. I distracted Michael and asked if he could come outside to help me with something. He then saw the trailer and he seriously said “ I think they got the wrong address”, I’ll tell him. Then the tinted window rolled down on the truck and there was the smiling face of our tractor guy, Brian. Michael just looked at him, and Brian said, ‘I think this is yours!”

Michael looked at me and I just shrugged my shoulders and said, “When you buy one of those $19,000 hats, they give you a free mower, so I said “Drop it off please!”.

Michael is in love with his new Kubota monster mower. Mission accomplished.

Motorcycles? What motorcycles? Buying more motorcycles? No, not me…

 

[MotoBazzi]

Great size shed you got there.
Get some cows, we're on 30 acres and only mow 2, the moosters and horses take care of the rest.
Good luck and enjoy your new life.

 

[DeadEye]

How much of that 10 acres has grass that needs to be cut ?
What about that new fangled tractor of yours, no Grass cuttin, bush hog attachement ?

Scott, all of us are wondering what time we should show up for your housewarming party? Will there be fun activities like you raffling off one of your bikes? Should we start clearing our calendars for the Annual Scott Run to your place? Is there room to pitch a tent? You're buying the beer and burgers, right? I can bring a salad.

Oh yes, it has a 10’ wide brush hog whacker but that is for the back 5 acres of thick pasture and field grass.

The Kubota is the finish mower for the ornamental lawn in the front 5 acres.

If you try and cut a finish lawn with a brush hog, you will make it look like hell.

Not a bad idea! I’ll have to work on that one, except the raffle part

I’ve said this before but virtually anybody from GuzziTech is welcome at my home and workshop. If you are traveling in the Northwest Ohio area, and you need something, or just want to stay and visit, by all means, contact me and I will be delighted to welcome you.

I will have to have a “Shangri-La Tech Days” event like Bill Hagan with the Moto Grappa Tech Days.

Something to plan for…

Thank you very much.

I think you should've bought that harvester in the photo beyond, bottom pic.
Nice one Scott, well done.

Todd realizes I’m just softening Michael up so I can get away with having GTM make me a custom bike!

Scott, if you run out of room for your bikes after you get the GTM Custom, you can always "store" one or two at my house on the West Coast. Glad to help!
