Seeing those tractor tires reminds me of something I used to do with the tractors that may help with hillclimbing (definately helps with traction). Adding water to the tire. I would fill the rear tires about 3/4 full. It made a HUGE differance in the amount of wieght the tractor could pull. Not sure if it would help but I figured it was worth mentioning.

Dang! Are they 23 degrees, like flotations? How much did he say they were?

Did you or anybody else find my black Shumacher jumpbox in the cabin when you were packing up when we left D&K? I forgot all about it until we got home and I was trying to fix Dakotah's mini rail on Monday.
