It almost brought tears to my eyes when you said you had so much liver to sell & were putting it on at $1.00 a pound! Good liver can be hard to find at times, but we always do it on the Bar-b-q. My wife puts olive oil on some aluminium foil, left open, to cook the liver on and on a separate, oiled piece of aluminium foil, left open, she puts cut up onions & cut up bacon together. Stirring the bacon & onions at times while they cook. I know you said you don't like liver, Pete, but for anyone who does, this is the Rolls Royce way of preparing it!

Just wanted to say how much we appreciate your videos. Besides being very enjoyable, we find them extremely instructional. I can only imagine how beneficial they will be to your future generations who will undoubtedly have questions regarding how to manage the farm, or when seeking knowledge that will help them survive. Imagine how helpful you would have found it if "You Tube" had existed when your Great Grandparents were running the farm. By the time you are finished posting videos, your family (and your viewers), will have an extensive video collection of all aspects of a simple farm life, how you solved everyday problems and why you chose the solutions you did.

I started my Diesel Mechanic apprenticeship in 1972 at the South Australian Highways Department. We rebuilt everything from Fordson tractors to Caterpillar D9 dozers EXACTLY how you do. Each and every component was taken back to it's very foundations and 'rebuilt'.

I still work only because my farm isn’t self sustainable yet. I really hope to do that and I’m not scared of farmers markets but my kids play sports and I don’t want to miss their sporting events but someday I hope to get there. I sell beef for processing to consumers. Makes decent profit but not as much as I could. Thank you for all the help over the years now! Also a big red tractor fan!! I have 2 H’s, an M and a 986. I do have other flavors of tractors but only because my dad used whatever was cheap and reliable when he needed them.

I agree with previous guy on the gearwrench sets if you have a dealer even the taps dies are covered under the warranty which is handy. I'll also say the harbor freight pittsburg pro ratcheting t handle are actually good and being able to move the handles side to side comes in handy in a lot of tight spots.

[@davilynwentzel9551]

Earthquake!!! Yes, I felt the earthquake and saw my dishes fall off the kitchen dish rack onto the floor. Strange weather this year for where I live. Too warm and dry of a winter. And spring is too wet. We had a train derailment, flooding that caused partial bridge collapse, Then the biggest quake tremor. I live close to the earthquake epicenter, west in PA. Our local farmers are saying with all the odd weather issues we experienced this year so far, farming season will be different. Thanks for sharing with us. I recall my grandparents farming days and learn new farming ideas. 🚜🐥🐂

[@rweisele]

If you feel guilty for spending an extra hour inside, you have only yourself to blame, Pete!!! I used to drive myself unmercifully, farming and I came to realize that I was robbing myself of a lot of good times with others, because of my personal drive, and I made a major change, and have not looked back!!

Last comment of mine - for quite a while - as to why I like your channel. My DK maternal family owned a small scale family farm operation 1750-1990, which grew from 10 to 45 acres by 1920. It was mixed farming (24 dairy cattle, 200 pigs and a couple dozens chicken, doves and ducks, and sugar beet, rye and barley cropping with a few acres of grazing for the dairy cattle during the summer). It sustained big families of mine, with extra income for two and a half centuries. My parents living nearby, we often visited my grandmother and her two sons managing the farm 1946-1990. First things that I'll be doing during a visit was to explore the barns, chicken coop and collect the eggs, and chase the the free-ranging ducks. I also explored the two acre vegetable garden and fruit orchard. In short, I've always had fond memories of small scale farming, most of of my school friends out of the same heritage for centuries on a small Danish Baltic island.
