Once again, Klondike proved useful
during a small home project. The project was to use an air compressor
and a special attachment to blow lint out of the dryer vent (you insert a
hose with an air nozzle on the end that blows back towards you). The
tractor was a great help in serving as a working platform to hold the
compressor.

| I loaded
the compressor into the bucket, so that I could raise the compressor, to
have it nearby while blowing out the vent |

We also
recently had some high wind, which blew quite a few leaves off of the
trees |

I've been working at clearing an
area where I'll build a swing set for Lucy. The spot is at the edge of
the mowed area of the back yard, and was mainly sticker bushes and some
Hawthorn trees. So I figured it would make a good spot for a swing set
once I removed the trees and bushes, and leveled the site. Klondike
has proven to be invaluable in this project.

| I've been
using the tractor and a log chain to pull out brush and stumps. |
 |
Two
good-sized Hawthorn stumps that I just pulled, ready for the brush pile by
the fire circle |
 |
| These were
monsters, but came out without too much trouble after I broke through a few
of the roots on the side (also with the chain) |
