T0M decided to start filling in the ruts from the "Bobcat Incident"...... he figured a little at a time... It gave him something to do with a little exercise too......
He borrowed the neighbors home made trailer to pull behind the 4-wheeler... He'd just take his time and go down to the gravel pit and bring back a load of gravel...... eventually he'll have his ruts filled in..... "wait till I get my hands on some equipment again"... he said with a mischievous twinkle in his eyes......LOL
As he brought a load back I would unload it ....... we'd have a cup of coffee and he'd be off again..... The trailer was small but the gravel was heavy.......I decided to go the next trip with him......we were loaded in no time and on our way back...

We were moving along at a pretty good clip.... all of a sudden we heard and felt the trailer let go...... The 4-wheeler sped ahead as it's load lightened with the release of the trailer....... I look back to see the trailer nose down skidding toward us and than coming to a stop right behind us......
We both burst out laughing........ on a bad day I would have jumped off the 4-wheeler and headed for the woods.... but he surprised me and laughed ....
The ball hitch broke on the 4-wheeler...... Just the two bolts that held it on..... So we unloaded our gravel and pushed the trailer to the side of the road till he could get the neighbor and retrieve it..... I had to use the shovel to dig the ball hitch out of the road......
We giggled all the way home about different scenarios like the trailer taking off into the woods or passing us on the road.
We had a GREAT DAY!
