New (rebuilt) farm toy

One thing leads to another. I bought a lamb. Then we bought a farm and another sheep came shortly after.  Then we bought two donkeys to protect the sheep.  Donkeys poop a lot! So we needed a skid loader to move the donkey poop out of the barn.
New toy arrives
Dale and his brother, Bob, went today to pick up the skid loader today.  When they arrived home, the ground was still frozen.  Which gave them the opportunity to play with the new machine and practice moving it.
Play time, I mean practice time
Although with the ground frozen, it caused a problem. The only thing to do was move some of the little snow left on the yard and pretend that it was dirt. Dirt / Snow they are both four letter words doesn't that mean something?
Dump the _ _ _ _ dirt/snow LOL
By coincidence Dad and Pat are staying here this weekend between activities in central and Southern Minnesota. They arrived just a few minutes before Dale got back from picking up his car.  Dad didn't take the time to finish unpacking his things from the car.  The skid loader must have been calling him.  I guess what mother said for years must be true, "You can take the boy out of the country; but, you can't take the country out of the boy!"
Country boy :^)
