What did you do with your tractor today?

No tractor duties today. Had a guy show up to set a power pole to get power to the wood shop. They are rebuilding a transmission line a couple miles away and got one of those old poles. Cannot sell used power poles for liability reasons, so he charges for his labor and machine, and the pole is free.
 
I put the 24x12x12 turfs back on my GT16, taking the bar treads off. Had to get a battery for it...
Have had to jump with my jump pack the last few times I had to move it...
SOB... Dammit. What has more than doubled in price in a matter of just a couple years... Definitely not my pay
BATTERIES! IVE NEVER PAID $53 FOR A SINGLE GT BATTERY!!!! But I had to today. And that was with a $3 discount for being a "Rewards" member and 10% discount for my wife working there...
I can foresee having to buy at least 3 more this season, making 4... 3 of which on machines that are going away over the course of this summer...

I got 4 of them courtesy of a buddy of my son, I dug out half the diameter and laid them in a long mi gravel driveway to keep the rock from migrating into the grass on either side.
I didn't realize there was so much variation in diameter. The bottom of the biggest is a foot while the skinniest of the top is just over 7".
The guys we got them from were in the process of cutting them up in lengths that would fit into a dumpster
