  • Ack! The cattle never stop complaining! Moving them to a new pasture should quiet them down. An update on fly control; which method is working the best? Then it's time to get the tractor and baler ready for hay season, except the Farmall 756 has a little problem, and it derails my day...

    I don't much care about the repairs (being an old non mechanically inspired grandma) but the sound of that tractor cranking inside the metal barn took me by surprise, took me back about 55 years. My dad was a citrus grower in Florida and he and Granddaddy had a long grey metal barn where they kept their tractors. I loved the smells and sounds in that barn. Thanks for sharing your days with us.

He will follow me around like he is my 2 legged dog crows when I leave the yard, and loves to sit on my lap when I sit in my swing. Yesterday he sat on my lap swinging for over 1 hour, he will pump his head like a little kid does.

      Exactly! About 40 years ago from a 285 ft tower I watched a 'farmer' leave his house, drive 300 yards to his tractor, cultivate for no more than 2 hours, then drive back to his house. He had near $200,000 of near new equipment work 2 hours that day and probably wonders why he's broke.

    Hey Pete and Hillary I sure enjoy your videos it reminds me of when I was a kid my grandfather had a farm and Leicester New York and also my Uncle Joe my Aunt Kay had a farm in Leicester. My grandfather's milking barn burned down in the early sixties. It broke my heart as a little boy and then he got cancer and passed away so my grandmother sold the farm. My aunt and Uncle Joe farmed and he retired in his 80s and sold the main Barn I remember when he built the barn it was a modern Barn witht a modern milking parlor and my aunt lived in his parents house and still lives in the same farmhouse she's 101 she still drives her car God bless her. My aunt's grandson reopen the old Barns several years ago and raises some cattle still farms the land. Seeing you both bring back great memories of my childhood God bless both of you and your family 🙏

    Great job with the way you are letting your cattle graze, and let them move, so you have good hay all year long. The yearly getting equipment out, and cleaning lube and maintenance, is a never ending task. Also it never fails, something on the tractor you want to use, has little problems that take time to get ready. Always like your videos. Brings back memories of the farm in West Chazy, NY, north of Plattsburgh, where I was raised and lived until I was 18.

Weedsport, Cato, Victory, Auburn, Canajoharie etc. and around the finger lakes. area. used to average 3 loads a week out of that area. ( on straight job. about 380 bales. back then they were running aroundt 45-60 lbs in the 70's but in the 60's they were wire bakes and 60 -90 lbs the string was a welcome thing for our backs for sure. remember when you could have bought that gasket set for $20 bucks!
