    I can remember playing with the barn cats on my grandparents farm. That was 60 years ago. They used to load up hay bails in the field with horse pulled wagon.I love watching all of you farm. Brings back memories even though you're just a tad more modern.😂❤

    I love it when you do your posts when I come into the house for dinner (I'm a farmer like you two; and I don't say "lunch" for the noon meal) so I can watch your video while I eat. Made many trips, myself, hauling my grain to the Mississippi River terminals to the east of my farm. Have also hauled corn to the ethanol plant east of Macon, MO; and recognize the ethanol plant you're hauling to west of town on US34. Actually, and as usual, I, WAS, "happier" at the end of your video.

    You all make it fun to come along for the ride.
    My days in grain bins were my least favorite. I felt gritty and sticky for a week afterwards. The milo bins were the worst.
    Being a farm/ranch we had a wide variety of jobs to do. My favorite was going around and checking on our cattle. We had pastures in 2 countries, and a couple thousand head of Angus. Tending the cattle was a 7 day a week job.
    We had alfalfa, Prarie hay, wheat, milo and sorghum for crops.
    Still, to this day, it is my favorite job, even with all of the work and hours.

    That was really great footage on the massive job of getting the corn from the bens into the semi trailer. Love your attitude, patience, safety concerns, and overall consideration of your farm, family, animals, and everyone you come in contact with during your work day! ❤😊 So educational and entertaining.
    Your Dad let me ride with him in the sprayer on Monday. That was so much fun! Riding with you in the combine a few years ago was also a blast! I get to see your perspective on occasion, so I love that.
    There are still a gazillion things on the farm that I have not experienced yet….so, anytime you or Cale can take me along, I’m up for that. Riding in the semi to unload beans or corn would be really cool 😉. I still haven’t ridden in the tractor 🚜 yet either. It’s so wonderful to have talented knowledgeable farmers leading this family 🥰
    Love you to pieces!!! Grammy

I think I'd enjoy hauling corn and beans, I like the idea of the bottom dump looks like fun. In my mind it's like playing with a big tonka truck it' just that enjoyable of a job too me. Keep up the good work.

    I recently retired, last month, from a career as an airline pilot. I did it for 31 years and 28 days. Before that, I flew in the Air Force for 9 1/2 years, but as a kid, all I wanted to do was to be a farmer. Working the land and growing crops or animals is something I've always loved and watching you work that corn bin and drive it to market is very impressive. Your editing skills are right on and your narrative is just right along with your music selection. Great seeing you and stay safe from all those pesky tornadoes out there! BTW My oldest son, Alex is an Air National Guard pilot up in Souix City! Cheers!

    Running a sweep auger and cleaning out a grain bin is definitely a tedious task but when all done is so rewarding in more ways than one. That was one of my first jobs on the farm back when I was 8 years old (1977) and I started learning what hard work was. You are a go getter. Gage seems to be a perfect fit for your farm operation and is ambitious.

    Hello! If you're grain bin has a blade type dryer blower I recommend you install a reversing switch on the fan motor. Running the fan in reverse when you are inside the bin pulls the dust down and also pulls fresh air into the bin where you are working.

      If axial flow 3 phase just swap any 2 wires of the 3 phase or if single phase unbolt the fan and reverse the entire fan and one more item please wear a quality mask, your lungs are very precious. This is 48 years of experience .

    • @MrSMS60
      @MrSMS60 7 месяцев назад +2

      A single phase motor can be easily reversed by installing a properly wired DPDT 2 position toggle switch wired into lead numbers 5 and 8. Just don't switch it during the first few seconds of start-up.

    Love you guys,Laura! The only thing worse than what you just did (as a teen I cleaned out many corn and grain bins) , is going underneath the pit where corn has leaked onto the underneath pit floor and has about 3 inches of water from heavy rains leaking on the floor. When the weather gets warmer, it becomes full of unbelievably stinking maggots, wiggling around and wearing knee high rubber boots, you have to use a shopvac and suck them up until the floor is dry!!!!! When you go back to the Quonset hut to eat lunch,none of the other farm hands want to sit at the lunch table with you! 😂

    Laura,
    Huge tip ! How to Put on & off a belt without tools.
    19:30 --- Tip - To Put a Belt on. It's called walking the belt on. Put belt on the smaller pulley , then put the belt on the bigger pulley by starting at one part of big pulley & turn big pulley holding belt in place walking the belt around the big pulley till the end and it will pop over the edge. keep fingers clear at last edge of belt before it pops over edge.
    You Can Roll off a Belt this a way too for inspection or replacing belts. no tools needed.
    to remove a belt - pull off belt at big pulley edge and turn pulley backwards to spin off belt.

      Nothing to go wrong with them as per an electic window..
      Come to that the wind-down window and the wing windows were as basic as could be yet extremely functional.
      Then some bright spark in the automotive sales and design teams thought we had to have electric windows. More stuff to sell us when something goes wrong.....

    Nice to see a r95 dust mask on Laura in the grain elevator. A respirator would be much safer. I've known farm workers and farmers that have died slow agonizing deaths from lung disease. I'm hoping the people in this video know more about it than I do and that they will be just fine.

      I was thinking the exact same thing as I was watching them, young and healthy, do the same work that many die from later on. Team work is so important to help prevent dying alone, helpless, in those grain elevators.

      @@johnr.6029 This guy seem really smart. So I'm hoping they're aware of all the idiosyncrasies and dangers of that workplace. I think there's a family lineage to have learned from. I hope so.

    That's one of your best videos yet. Your showing the true work involved with farming and how hard it really gets. Besides seeing you in your true working conditions and covered in dirt making your hair look gray was just a little taste of what you heading for in a short time with life being so short. I love how patient Grant is with you just luring how to drive a truck. You did great for the first run in a while. Great video Lara and keep up the hard work.

    Grant - A project for you - build a cup holder for Laura that she can place on the floor of the truck. I am sure she would be greatful!

      A roll of duct tape works just fine for a cup holder on the floor in those!!

    i miss the swing windows. they were awesome at moving air in the truck on hot days. now you have to use the A/C or suffer. And it doesn't matter how long you drive your still learning. I drove 22 years and was still learning new things when till i retired.

    Brings back memories. I no longer store grain, just haul it straight to town and let them dry and store it.

    Cleaning bins can be a chore sometimes. Especially cleaning the bin that has a cone bottom, that is sloped instead of flat metal to walk on is the worst cleaning. having a grain vac inside helps to clean while we clean the slopes on the cone bottom bins.

    modern farming.... i'm old. how old am i?? old enough to have shoveled cob corn out of the bin onto a flat conveyor to a corn sheller. worst day was when the skunk rode the conveyor into the sheller...yea...bad..
    also made more than a few dollars every summer stacking 75 pound hay bales in the hay lofts of several farms. talk about sweaty.
    love watching your vids of modern farming.

    I was happy to hear you have a Safety protocol while in the bin. I've never been, nor am i a farmer, but I live in a farming community, where stories abound, so I respect it.

    Your videos should be shown in schools for career days, give kids an idea of what a real rewarding job is. The ups and downs and how you cope. If anything, they will learn where their food comes from. You are verry good at explaining what you do.

      I grew up on a farm and although it was rewarding, it's also a back breaking adventure that I would never repeat since I am retired from the farm I don't get around to much anymore but back when I was doing it we didn't have any of the fancy stuff today
