    What impresses me is to see you folks living out the joy that comes only from farming, where you get to enjoy the rewards of your own sweat, on your own land surrounded by family and friends.
    Memories from a tiny (100 acres of woods and rocks) Grampa's farm, hearing the neighbor's two-cylinder John Deere tractors,getting loose hay in the barn just before the rain, and many hours spent on a brand new 1950 Allis WD,,,,,just me ,the tractor, and the land.
    Wouldn't trade those memories with from 70 years ago with anyone.
    You go, girl!

    No need to beat up on yourself, Laura. Things happen now and then. That's what it is to be a human being. You did a fine job troweling that concrete, girl! I always try to make it look the best that I can because it will be around longer than I will whether it's just the cows that see it or not? Looks to me that a rat or whatever burrowed out under that well engine pump also chewed through the generator wires and shorted them out, hence the burned wiring smell. I love flying too, never could afford to get to do much of it, always loved going to air shows and I'm a state fair junkie! You need make a rake with a long aluminum tube handle for that wagon. We have one made for work when we rake down grain trucks that we are loading with fertilizer pellets. Thanks for yet another nice bright cheerful video with your wonderful personality! I'm a big fan of you and your family!

    It's true that farming builds character in young people. They learn that they have to be honest and transparent and do what they say they're going to do. There's no place to hide from your mistakes on a working farm: you have to own them, learn from them, and move on. I'm favorably impressed by Laura.

    I have watched many of your videos. This may be one of the most significant and important one. No, ... not because of chopping corn, or any other farm happenings. Rather, the lesson being taught about integrity and transparency. You had the video running when your father came to the cab door, and captured his exchange with you. He left and you diverted from wagons to personal character, "... because I love you ... transparent ...." You captured the immediate reaction through your camera.
    If I understand, YOU are the one editing the videos, and posting them to YT. YOU had two opportunities to leave some "film on the floor." The first, the exchange with your father, the second, your mea culpa. YOU chose to keep them both in the video and post. This took courage and truthfulness. You did not leave "film on the floor." You could have cut them both.
    Laura, you taught everybody a valuable lesson, regardless of age. Many hunger for genuineness in a 2021 world of phony and façade. You brought that to the table and presented it, full front-center. Your facial expressions, tone of voice and blush told everybody that you are a genuine person, far greater than dumping silage wagons, planting corn, chopping out male rows, or ( ....). You ratcheted up respect for Laura as a person. You took a big step up on the ladder of maturity. It was not missed. Thank you.

    I spent the first half of my life working on the family farm and I loved all the skills I learned. Sadly nobody took over the farm so that family heritage has come to an end, but I will never forget the memories and all the things I learned. ♥

    • @jaspersgarden5015
      @jaspersgarden5015 3 года назад

      Nobody took over the farm? I mean, you don't even have to work it, you can sell the land and machinery. Who got to do that? And really, one of the best jobs is farming. and 90% people are born into farming to be farmers. enless you get 900 thousand just to start up your farm, thann your not gonna get that chance again. :(

      Same here. Sad to see the family farm go after being in the family for 4 generations. I saw some land near our old farm that was going to be auctioned - my uncle said he thinks it will go for $10K an acre. It was 100 acres.

  • @marteen_sim

    Interesting to see the silage activities. I have never seen a farmer do it themselves. In our country (Netherlands), there is a lot of maize and silage chopping, but it's all done by big contractors (and big equipment). The guys driving the silage wagons here are going at very high pace all the time. So nice to the (relatively) calm pace at your farm. Thanks!

    Just subscribed. Both my wife and I enjoy your videos, You are so upbeat and a breathe of fresh air! We loved watching the wedding and I can tell you 2 were made for each other. My wife was raised on a dairy farm in Wisconsin...when we were first married we would spend two weeks there and I would be running a corn head or bailing hay.....nothing like you guys do now. It was so much manual labor and those hay bales were heavy.
    I learned dairy farming is a 24/7 operation and very little change for vacation unless you hire someone to do the chores.
    The most impressive video was that huge dairy farm in New York.
    Looking forward to more of your videos. The best to you and your family.

    Farming is never be a single job. It´s with maintain the farm and equipment, maintain the mood of your farms peoples and family, enjoy the long days in the combine and grain cart truck and truck itself for doing little or big errands and just let the farm run somehow. awesome view and I do definitely like some vlogs.
    Just thinking of some twitch stream if the long combine or grain cart or in the planting/harvest season coming up and there should be plenty of time and opportunity to talk a bit, share the same value and positive kind of life and love and thoughs.
    Great time wished from germany!
