So a few years back, late in fall, our mechanic, Tyler, was out plowing the field with the "Zone Commander". (As a side note, I LOVE the names for tillage equipment - like "Dominator" , "Zone Commander" or in general terms, "Rippers" - real though guys stuff!!)
I got the phone call back at the farm to bring an assortment of tools out to the field in order to replace some 3/4" sheer bolts. As Tyler tells the story, he was proceeding along on auto-steer (sleeping I suspect) when all of a sudden the tractor bogged down. He looked back only to see a huge piece of Earth rise and fall. This is what surfaced.
It's a cool rock and I have a dream to have a "Soaring Eagle" carved into it and then parking it in front of the dairy as a landscaping piece.
I have to wonder, back in the 1930's when Grandpa John started farming, how would they handle such a thing? I guess the walk behind plow and pair of horses never got deep enough to dig one of these bad boys up!!
Wow, that is quite the find. And I agree it would make for a great place to have your farm named carved in.
ReplyDeleteIt's definitely a conversation piece! I also agree that you should put it out in front of the dairy and have your named engraved!! Nice find Tyler!!!
