This week has seen changes, progress, a few little problems, new folks interested and volunteers. The biggest volunteer helper was the big forklift that helped lift that little bitty Hesston tractor (that is a BIG tractor, actually) out of the mud. Dave was covering a drainpipe with the Hesston, and somehow--who knows how--got that tractor up to its eyeballs in mud. After valiant efforts by our construction workers and Dave, all to no avail, a company working nearby helped get it out ever so quickly. Sort of like a tiger pulling a kitten out of a well, according to an observer. I got there too late to get a picture of the stuck tractor. But you get the picture. Thanks, folks. This would have taken a long time with a shovel.
