I hate pulling out tractors | Life on a Colorado Farm

This is exactly the kind of stuff I hate…pulling out a stuck tractor—and it’s treating to rain … again.

So Terry takes one tractor and I drive the other tractor and off we go to get the one Terry stuck

But it is even WORSE than I thought because the tractor is on the edge of a ravine. The ravine isn’t large, but it is steep and covered in slick, matted, winter-killed grass.

No! I do not back up tractors that are in dangerous positions!!!! I should, I know. But I am not that good of a driver and rolling a tire on the edge (the very edge) of a ravine is way above my skills.

This whole thing is just terrifying to me-when I was in high school our neighbor had his tractor tip over backward and kill him, my Dad had a tractor roll on top of him and crush his pelvis, and one of Terry’s very best friends had a tractor roll backward and kill him. I HATE STUFF LIKE THIS!!!!!
