    We call irrigation pivots, sprinklers, that row on wheel’s that move slow in the fields on timers. They’re a pain to work on but easy to move.
    That was nice of Dougo to help his neighbor out for all the help he did for the Larson’s Farm. Good job.

    Yup, windburn. Anyone who spends time out in the windy cold knows it! You can really feel it when you come back indoors where it's warm, especially if you get near a wood stove!

    We call these irrigators "pivots" in LaPorte County, Indiana (the most irrigated county in Indiana). The one in your video is fixed in one spot, but the some of the ones we use in Indiana can be towed from pad to pad to utilize one system in several locations in a larger field. They're light enough that a 4020 can pull them. They are maintenance hogs and they'll always blow a tire, snap a drive axle, or drop a sprinkler in the middle of a 6' tall corn field on the hottest, most humid day of July. Guaranteed. That's why we also call them "irritators."

    After I got out of the army in '91, I helped put in water lines from wellheads to centerpivots for a couple months. Usually dig, install, and bury 1/4 mile of pipe 5-6 ft deep in a day. Did this in Nebraska where irrigating is prevalent.

Doug, I am 70 years old and have a bit of experience and now retired, please please come to terms with your age and quit worrying about it and compafing to you younger years. I will say that what really sruprised me was how fast I lost my balance and strength, so eat right and start getting a plan to keep you strenght in the future and you will work many more years and hopefully get a few grandchildren which you will be crazy about.

    I’m just guessing here Dougo. But I’m assuming that I’m about the same age as you are, if not a few years older. But a GOOD pair of quality sunglasses, makes all the difference in the world. It can’t be the cheap ones you buy at a convenience store. But, if you look around and are willing to spend a little money, good quality sunglasses really help make things so much sharper in bright light and even on cloudy days, it helps see things way better.

    • @hawks2252
      @hawks2252 Год назад +1

      interesting question. There are distinct "lines" if you will in MN regarding soil composition. I don't know why, this is just a thought - when the glaciers receded it left different distinct soils. if you look at your hand that is kind of how a glacier looks with fingers. Pull your hand back and there will be distinct lines. We are having a new building built at my work and I was talking to the excavator guys and they said this soil is way different than the county over.

  • @SteveNicoson-u1i
    @SteveNicoson-u1i Год назад +3

    Thanks for another great video Chet and Eric.
    It was interesting.
    Eric thanks for explaining the mapping process to us. A little more to it than one thinks. But nevertheless it is important to have these records of the tile lines and where they are at. It was interesting and appreciated the lesson in mapping a field.
    Chet and Dougo I am sure you did a great job for this gentleman and putting in his water lines for an irrigation project. Pretty deep in some places. Be careful Chet and watch for cave ins. Dangerous business in deep digging. Great you are paying back another farmer for work he did for you at harvest time. Pay back time. Being good neighbors.
    Wind burn is just as bad as sunburn. Put some burn lotion on your face to help.
    About it I guess. Thanks for everything Chet. You all take care and be safe. Interesting video.
    The Iowa farm boy. Steve.

    I live in northern NSW, Australia at an elevation of around 3400ft a.s.l. and have suffered windburn many times through our winters (which are not as severe as yours, but still cold by Australian standards) and it is very unpleasant. It is very much like sunburn, but probably worse except that it usually only hits your face and hands if your not wearing gloves. Keep up the good work guys, love the vids.

But Dougo is NOT excited. never be the trench guy... OSHA follows these videos too! Struggling in the gumbo... that's a great explanation Eric the Swede! So what is wind burn... well, it's terrible: Windburn is a condition in which the skin becomes red and painful after exposure to wind or cold air. Windburn symptoms are the same as sunburn symptoms and include red, burning, and sore skin that may peel off as it begins to heal.
