      in a dream I saw a RAMP that went on the FENDERS and the RAMP FOLDED DOWN BEHIND THE FRONT WHEELs and went down low enuf that the JUMP WAS NO ISSUE for KOBY or any other doggie that ain't MINITURE TOY SIZE anyhow...
      and it was on a spring that would hold it UP a bit, for roading... if it needed to get out of the way,,, I THINK there could be a henge on it to swing out and away from the side when ya need to get into that side of the combine/tractor... I COULD DRAW IT UP FOR SOMEONE THAT WANTED TO SEE WHAT I AM TALKING ABOUT CUZ THEY WANT TO DO ONE FOR THEIR DOGGIE and my description was ''weirdenglish'' to them... lol

    In the mid 60's I rented a neighbor's farm that had been in the first long term reserve program, didn't have a Big Bud, used a 530 John Deere gas and a 3-14 semi-mounted plow, of course it was only 80 acres! I was only 14 then, plowed up plenty of rocks too! Planted soybeans there wasn't much for herbicide then was a weedy mess the first year.

    I was born in 83, all i've ever understood about crp is bad, "big brother" type stuff, apparently what i remember of it, was my my great uncle and grandpa talking about it was, the farmers would only get like 1/16 of what they would have normally got, and some farms where basically forced into doing it, someone (county / state ??) told my uncle he was going to put in 16,000 acres into crp if he liked it or not, I dont know all the details of it, and I remember very little but I do remember my uncle swearing he would burn half of west texas before they touched his land, and kill anyone who tried to take it, (again, most of what i remember is sketchy at best). Plus he owned the cotton gin / warehouse and bought and sold cotton from all over west texas,then moved into farming insurance side of it when i was old enough to know what was going on (guess it all worked out in the end), guess my much older cousins didnt want anything to do with farming.

    So if that's Maria's Pass then the Marias River should be close - that's the one Meriwether Lewis explored and ran into trouble with some Indians - iirc Lewis led some men up the Marias and they were sleeping overnight with some Blackfeet - who tried to steal John Colter's rifle at first light - that little skirmish ended up with a Blackfoot shot in the stomach and put them in big trouble and Lewis and his small group got out of there in a hurry - knowing Blackfeet would be hot on their trail. They hooked up with Clark and his group at three forks and rode for 2 days and nights without stopping. That same John Colter, towards the end of the trip, asked to leave the Corps of Discovery to become the first Mountain Man and found Old Faithful and Yellowstone - and if you want to read more hair raising Indian escape stories, read about Colters!
    Thanks for the excellent video!!

    Nice little history tour Bob. I had a college friend from Libby. Sometimes wonder what happened to him. He was quite a artist. Had a Willy’s keep we had a lot of fun in. Reminded me about him when you were giving that tour. Never have been up that way.
