I dunno Charlie. If I had a day start like that, i'd probably go back to the barn 'til tomorrow and try again.LOL!

Russ, at least the tire on the 7020 shouldn't be too bad to fix. I'd start there, might make you feel better.

At least your day is over. I lost a hay hook (the kind used to pick up small bales) "somewhere" in a 40 acre field. It will be easy to find.........in one of my rear tractor tires at the worst possible time..........groan.

Why is there never time to do it right the first time, but always time to go back and fix it?

Feel for you, but I'm glad to see that I'm not the only one living under that little cloud right now -- LOL.

No good deed goes unpunished. I helped the young neighbor girl jump start her Jeep so she could go to work, but I put a nail through the front tire sidewall when I did it.
