Came over to friends place to haul is Backhoe over to his farm. He was selling it and a semi could not get into his place. Narrow drive and all that. Came in fine, but turning around before loading I got a tad to close to the right side, and I slid right off.

Disconnected the trailer, used the backhoe and a truck and its not budging, just getting worst. Called a big wrecker and it drug me side ways back unto the rod. The was $400, stuff happens

might be a stupid question but why did he just drive the tractor up the road to a place where it could be loaded onto a semi?

Thought about that while we were waiting, but there was also a JD tractor and implements at the farm. Was trading in all this for a new larger JD tractor and implements.

Looks familiar ... not as much metal involved in my case, but similar frustration. Glad it wasn't any worse for ya' AD.
