4/ Just threw the ~ 75 lb 3-ton-lever-hoist over one shoulder and walked back. An hr or so of work got the tractor pulled back 30 feet, but lever hoist now out of free chain, so put it in reverse...and it was stuck.

5/ Walked back to workshop, got manual, walked back to tractor...and at this point my Clark hat is so soaked through with sweat that the brim is dripping on the manual. F it. Gave up, walked home.

6/ A shower, petting the dog, and a long think, and.. I think I can repair the riding mower throttle w a bit of epoxy, and I think the lever hoist is fine, but the break pads are quite snug bc of the amount of force I was putting on hoist, so... just need to apply muscle?

10/ Oh, I know the inchworm-bucket-trick. Been using it along w the 3 ton lever jack and the nylon recovery straps. Problem is that the ground is basically liquid in one spot, and once you hit that, inchworming on liquid doesn't do muchhttps://twitter.com/tax_endowments/status/1441892401153384452?s=19 …

14/ I would love an excavator! Priced them out, and it's in the realm of "Yeah, I could buy one...today...but that would be a really dumb decision, because I should swve for retirement instead."https://twitter.com/tax_endowments/status/1441894671819558914?s=19 …
