Suggest a daily calorie intake for me.

I'm just now getting back into lifting. I haven't lifted since High School and my weight has dropped to 150. I am trying to get back to 175 and bulk back up. My biggest challange is that I work manual labor all day. I mow about 50 yards per week by myself (all with a self-propelled mowers) so I'm walking and sweating for 6-7 hours a day. I'm not to good with these nutrition numbers and according to the calculators, they state, 4,100 calories per day, which I want to say is to low. Can someone with more experience give me an ideal range of how many calories I would need to start picking back up mass (25 lbs of it?) I recently went and stocked up on about 30 lbs of Mass Gainer. I also just started a new diet. I just started taking (2) Servings a day with milk and scoops of peanut-butter. Each serving with the milk and scoop of peanut butter is 2,000 calories x 2 servings a day. I'm starting off with about 4,000 Calories from mss gainer per day, 300 calorie cereal bars or 5 boiled eggs for breakfast, tuna sandwiches or chicken breast for lunch most days, and either steak with sides or (2) large bowls of pasta per night.

I just want a ball park figure from someone considering my work factors and enviroment. The diet I just started days ago, I would round-about that I will be taking in about 5,800 to 6,100 calories per day. Should this get me to the 25 lbs I'm looking for? I know it sounds like a lot of calories for the average person, but again, I will be in the gym from 4:30 until 6, and laboring and sweating from 7 am until dark. Suggestions?
