TRACTOR FOR SALE.......................HALF OFF :)
it's OK it's allowed to be funny no one is hurt
Okay this looks very very bad but noone got hurt and we are counting our blessings. So on monday the guys were hauling straw and Abe our hired mennonite boy.....or man i guess since he's 19, was on the south side of the highway and he was gonna cross both lanes of traffic b/c the tractor and trailor are so long that it just makes sense to do this ...........so there were no cars from either direction but he forgot to look at the train track b/c he was so busy checking and double checking for cars. So he saw the train hauling ammonia way to late and he slammed on the breaks, but slid for 10 feet b/c of the gravel and he smacked the train and the train ripped off the whole hood of the tractor and he just remembers...........I'm gonna die and then the train and then turning to the right from the train and then the tractor falling down due to lack of wheels.....and glass breaking. He is doing well and didn't even have nightmares. He was just very very shocked and shaky after the accident.
The tractor is covered with insurance and another tractor has already been snatched up a with CVT transmission, Dwight is very happy about the buy b/c the dealer sold it as a power shift but it actually had a CVT so now they can boost the horse power and they got more POWER.. (Bigger is better right :)
for the same money as a power shift..........
please don't ask me to explain that little blurb ........b/c i quite frankly can't ..........I just say yup...oh ...awesome...you look happy about it so i will be happy too.....:)
This accident could have been so much worse but we all know The Lord is in control and with things like this our eyes open up to that fact a whole lot more.
No

Oh Leanne! This is the stuff you read about in the news- not a family blog!
Glad Abe is not hurt, and everything is all sorted out.
Take care of yourselves over there!

(Ps.- when reading the first paragraph, I thought 1 or 2 little munchkins would be involved- glad to hear they weren't!)
Wow,wow...glad to hear Abe is not hurt. I was looking at the pictures and then I saw that the front wheel and part of the engine where waaaaay over there, away from the tractor and my eye balls popped outta my head. That is some crazy accident...did it make the news out there?
Lol, also glad Dwight got a better tractor and that insurance covered it...phew:)
That is pretty scary! Glad no one was hurt! I can't imagine the feeling Abe must've had when he realized what was happening!
