Mr. Kilcher. I wanted to let you know that your channel and the other family channels are an inspiration to most folks who hold God and family above all else. Thanks for continuing to produce videos of your lifestyle, they are always fun and entertaining to watch. From my perspective, your channel is better than the television version. I hope you continue to include us in your daily activities and your family. Be blessed.

I lost my dog yesterday morning in his favorite bed he just drifted away with me petting him. Never found out what it was after two different Vet clinics. I have nothing left holding me here. Ask Jewel if she wants to get married and go back to Alaska, she's only 5 years older than me, and I'm not a bad guy, I lived up there in spring of 2015. We had similar Dad's, I know that pain. Parenting is tough, I can't barely function and this was just my dog of 8.5yrs. Be careful Otto as you age, take a little extra time before hopping off the tractor ect to find your footing, don't rush and be safe. Take care Adam

Alis Chalmers closed their factory on Hyde Park Ave in the Hyde Park section of Boston about 30-40 years ago, i can remember from when i was a kid. It’s a Charter School today. Actually now that I think about it, the large part probably production part of it burned down in the 70’s we got there just as all the widows in the place started shattering from the flames.

Just found your channel, like it a lot! Hello from Ireland!. I see you drag a mat to keep the swath away from the PTO.

We just purchased a half of a grass fed beef. The brisket was delicious. Our pig is also in the freezer. There’s nothing like quality meat. It’s less expensive than the store. It’s an investment, buy a freezer , then shelling out the money for the meat, but in the long run it’s better. I have never been able to find any research of the cost of grass fed beef vs feed lot beef. I’d be interested in the comparison. 💙
