    I can't speak for everyone, but to me it doesn't matter if your videos are the same. It's a window into your world, and your world is slow-paced and very relaxing to watch. Especially compared to the chaos of the city and modern jobs. And when you watch your videos for long enough, you notice how things are changing, especially through the seasons. So you might be showing us the same market, the same cows, the same farm, but it's slightly different each time. And you make it very fun to watch. I would say you're my favorite channel on youtube

    My mouth was watering when I saw the 8 remaining whole chickens---too dratted far to drive from Illinois to your market and back or I would've hopped into my car and made the journey! One thing I noticed (being an old timer and remembering the Ford pick-up on the ranch) was how clean and tool/scrap free your truck was. But then, knowing how well you keep your tractors up, I am not surprised. Thanks for the near end of season episode. They are always a pleasure to watch.

    Hi Pete, I love all of your videos and especially the market and tractor restoration ones. I am now 82, so visiting the market to visit you is just too far for me to drive now, as I live on my farm 30 miles north of Boston. My exwife and I raised Morgan horses and trained them for saddle and fine carriage use for 35 years. I finally became a horse show judge and that was much fun. I taught ag for 23 years at a county ag high school. The plant end of ag. When I was 12 to 16 my farmer neighbor, who was in his 80's then, had a new Famallcub that he had me do all of his Land plowing and Hay mowing with it, as he was partially blind. I also "twitched" a lot of logs out of his woods and big rocks from his fields onto an old stone boat. I used to love mowing with that cub and it's belly mounted cycle bar mower. He taght me early to ALWAYS step on the pitman arm after I raised the bar to it stored position so the knife would drop down so no one could accidentally cut of fingers if they grabbed the bar in the wrong way. I will always remember the "whine" of the Cub when it was running. I know you have a cub there in the barn and would like to see you restore it, but it's not likely, as you really have no use for that small tractor on your farm. So happy to see all of your family involved in working on the farm with you. You would be so lost without Hillarys help however. She surely is a "keeper". Well, stay healthy and happy on that farm and I will watch all of your new Videos as soon as you post them! Lare,Dave

    I always enjoy your videos. My hat is off to you. You are a lucky man, doing what you love to do. I am retired, probably 15 years and honestly I am lucky that I can do what I want to do. I know that I have accomplished more in those 15 years than I did in the 50 years of my working life. As a Viet Nam era veteran I now fill my days doing charity work helping veterans. A family that I helped recently, kept on saying how they appreciated what I did for them. My response was it was nothing. They continued and I said to them it gives my life some purpose. Watching your videos I have a feeling that you would say the same thing. Thanks for being there.

    Market videos are some of my favorites from your channel! Don't worry too much about them being similar to each other. they are still fun to watch. And they are new unique little stories in every one. In this one, you met with Francis, you resolved the missing eggs problem, and we learned that the Finger Lakes region is known for it's Riesling wine! I love Riesling wine! Riesling originated in the Alsace region of France (near the German border) that I had the chance to visit in my younger backpacking days. And also in this episode, you showed beautiful artisan pottery and colourful woolwear. And that exterior booth with a rainbow palette of squashes and peppers! Beautiful!
