Yes, that is correct. I am working on a buffalo farm. Oh, they don't just have buffalo, they have cows, camels, zebras, wildebeests, and some yak/water buffalo looking things. I'll have to ask what they are.
You might be wondering what I do on this buffalo farm...I chain harrow fields. Yes, I spread buffalo poop around. Today I spent 5+ hours on a tractor driving around in a really BIG field. I did avoid any major mishaps. I got the beejesus scared out of me once when my right tire sunk down in a hole and it felt like I might flip. I about got bucked off when I was trying to cross some big ruts in the ground. And I nearly hit the fence when I accidentally stepped on a lever did something to the rear differential resulting in the front end hopping across the ground instead of completing a turn.
Thank goodness all went well. I did scare the wildebeests and got a camel really excited when I had to walk back to the barn for help...when I almost hit the fence. I don't think the animals are used to seeing someone on foot. They always see people in a variety of vehicles...but on wheels none-the-less.
I got invited back to work more next weekend so wish me luck. Keep your fingers crossed. Whatever you think will keep my tractor tires on the ground and my butt in the seat! :)
