The Big Freeze

[@Limogi]

Hi Pete! Don't ever think that people get tired of watching the every day, monotonous chores like feeding and watering the animals! It never gets old, or boring. Not for us watching. ❤

[@djjamison6548]

I am excited to watch Pete and wife,

[@deborah2768]

Well said.

[@cindydiggs-lp7xp]

I absolutely love watching Pete and Hillary. I’m just jealous that I don’t have a place like theirs 🤗

[@ronaldbrosowsky9922]

And do not forget to mention Patty and the Herd. I can watch this channel without any boredom.

[@elvinirons5959]

Another wonderful video, I love every part of your Video, I hardly ever watch TV for Watching videos like these n yours are the BEST !! It’s something I look forward to seeing n listening n even at 64 yrs old im learning !!

[@348Tobico]

Between Ezra's purring and the sound of the cattle munching, I can't think of a more calming way to spend a frozen morning.

[@ipfreely10001]

And looking over your shoulder at a cats butt 😂

[@eryk7545]

I thought the cat's name was Astra, but maybe I'm wrong because I'm not native English

[@rickzimmerman5557]

These videos are the best blood pressure medication available! Relaxing and enjoyable, educational with a side of nostalgia for the way things were. Small family farms, the stuff that is the real American Dream.

[@scottbalak7123]

I love it when your tractor restoration videos turn into a 27 part series, rather than a 15 minute summary video. I'm interested in the journey, not the finish line. :) Have a great day.

[@kaisabens4856]

We never stop learning. Enjoy your talks with us.

[@TimFair-l9l]

Your videos always bring me peace and calmness. I spent part of my youth on an acreage and working for neighbors. Nothing beats farm life.

[@Frankbever]

I love the snowfall and the beautiful picture it portrays. It is quietness and peaceful.

[@GeorgiasGarden]

Living in Texas, even north Texas we rarely see a snow that covers the ground. Growing up in Kentucky, I miss that sound and the quiet it gives to the world.

[@larrypestes2205]

Pete your medicinal voice paints a picture that goes far beyond your expectations. With my newly broken neck I am relegated to watch my beloved Red Angus cattle walk past my bedroom window. You soothe my soul

[@bt-rl4mh]

Pete you present a positive message about life, thanks! This channel has helped immensely.

[@clintonthomas6967]

Very peaceful it’s nice to let your life unwind and let your soul relax.

[@jamierupert7563]

Absolutely.😊

[@dorothylaplante7243]

What a great reminder to embrace life and all the seasons that make up our lives. Thank you for this video Pete. Great timing as we head into the quiet season.

[@noahcoley6623]

Pete, this video was a gift. As I sit and prepare my lessons for my classes I teach I like to spend my prep hour with you and today's video was very peaceful and calming. Thank you for all you do.

[@scotthayward996]

Hi Pete , I will be with you in whatever direction you go . You can make picking rocks interesting.

[@kailand3056]

Pete, what a lovely video❤ The farm was so peaceful and serene under the blanket of snow - I could feel the tension just melting out of my body. Your positive outlook and optimistic message is so welcome - thank you 🙏🏻🎄♥️

[@GSaries1]

Something new, engage the brain. So true Pete. I started my work career as a banker, worked for a year in a fast food bar, switched to computer operator, then purchased my first business at 23, a takeaway bar (fish and chips.). That morhed into a year working for a forestry contractor, which lead to me owning and running a business providing labour to big forestry players in New Zealand. After that, several years owning and operating an early childhood education centre. In my mid 40's, commenced six and a bit years at uni, one undergrad and three post grad degrees later, I'm a Psychologist. Now in my mid 60's I'm thinking a couple more years of Psychology then back to the bush to finish my life working on predator control in our native forests. Life is joy and excitement.

[@barbwilson9033]

We never miss an episode Pete. Love every one of them. This one was especially fun. We enjoy taking a trip around the farm periodically- looking at all the scenery and visiting with your animals.

[@LiSa.N.J]

My neighbor where I grew up, was a dairy farmer . He had a saying ., Summer is for body as winter is for the brain. You nailed it Pete!. Brought back that memory from down deep! Wow. Stay warm. Winter hit southern NJ too..with cold..still dry here. Bad drought. Stay safe Pete.

[@sburwell75]

Thank you, Pete! These winter videos are so calming.

[@timgovan1]

Hey Pete, Watching this video , started a conversation between my wife and I, I don't know if you thought of or mentioned this , but now that you are restoring the truck, it would be cool when you're done , to put your logo on the side, and drive it to the farmers market. We know that whatever you do, will be fun for all of us, Tim and Nancy in West MI

[@eddiebaughman2809]

I grew up on the farm. Lived in the small city now for 50 years. Love your videos.We had chickens and cows.Love and the farm life . Miss it. Thanks for reminding me of home and the good life.

[@packatk7431]

I always tell my kids, keep moving forward. No matter where you are in life keep learning, keep growing, its when we become stagnant that we start to die, spiritually and physically... Always keep moving forward. Great video Pete, thank you for sharing.

[@GregCollard-cq5yg]

Thanks Pete. See y'all Sunday, right here, bright and early.

[@JoeWoolley-rf5fq]

Hello Pete. Great video . I know as time passes we sometimes we forget to say thank you . We want to show our appreciation that you take the time to share your life with us. I know it is time consuming to shoot and edit videos but we sure do enjoy them . Please keep them coming and God Bless .👍👍👍👍👍

[@nielskerszemaker5377]

I would love an minute more with the cat always Pete. the way u love are animals and they love u back is precious to see.

[@MichaelSmith-xm7ll]

Hi Pete and Hilary, I suppose it’s just another day for both keep warm and safe.

[@danielprivate7442]

Pete, you seem like a guy that's figured out many things about himself. Salut.

[@bobmoroney3643]

Thank you for sharing your daily work and life experiences. Your farm animals are getting the best life they could have.

[@mikemcternan8249]

It’s great to see the relationship u have with your animals. I know they’re destined for the table but giving them a good life is paramount. Which u do. Always love to see Ezra on the scene 🐱

[@davidschwarz169]

the farm looks so peaceful with the snow

[@Manoffire260]

Truer words, never spoken Thanks Pete!

[@geraldsundberg3610]

This is a happy good feeling video Pete!

[@johnsullivan824]

Pete, your farm is so beautiful with the snow cover. It looks so peaceful. Merry Christmas and happy new year to you and your family.

[@ejharrop1416]

Thank you for sharing another beautiful, thought provoking video about the day and life on the farm. You are blessed, which is very clear that you appreciate the perfection of your existence. Thank you, cheers.

[@rosaliegloege4498]

Love watching your videos. They just ooze with peace and calm.

[@kevinpeck8485]

Can't wait to see the completed 856 Pete! Geter-done! Have a happy holidays!

[@jamierupert7563]

This just randomly came across my feed. I'm so glad it did.😊

[@michaelcrites5062]

It's always a pleasure.spending a little time with y'all on the farm. Thanks for taking the time to make the videos and sharing your day with us..

[@greghamann2099]

Your positivity really does come through. Like you I do love to see the farm going through its seasonal stages.

[@thomasward1161]

Pete's voice and cadence reminds me of Mr. Rogers. Very soothing and relaxing. I think it's good for my blood pressure.

[@ellisc.foleyjr9778]

Well Pete you've done it again !! Yep! you sure did!! You just made my day!! once again, I loved the short shots of silence and just scenes from the farm. I spent the last 28 yrs in business installing Satellite systems. but prior to that spent 15 yrs as a hay Dealer. so got to see at least 3-5 farms a week when I bought hay. and I miss not seeing them. but most of all the people the farmers and their familys. Broke many a bread with them. after loading my truck it was a rule to eat a meal with them 90% of the time they would be insulted if we did not sit down at theri table so had sooo many delicious meals and good times with them. I really miss that. the "Human touch" . Luckily I live in farm country. got a farm less than mile form me. I'm on an old farmstead. so happy here with that. I know how hard it is to make a video. so I reallay appreciate what you do to give a a good one each time and you are successfull Thank you soooo much and God Speed. ECF

[@karenhantsche9270]

Pete, I just started watching your videos, and I am hooked! "You're welcome to go outside if you're uncomfortable...." Classic!

[@douglasthompson9482]

Snow is beautiful…the quiet tranquility of this time of year. A farm, winter’s snow….simply gorgeous. Enjoy your break Pete.

[@inqwit1]

Enjoyed spending the day with Pete, just existing with the season.

[@jsal2366]

Good morning Pete always great content 👍

[@williamgawel8467]

I love watching your videos. I always put me in a good mood, but I am now 80 years old and know that none of my family will ever go this way not like the farm life like I did don’t repair any old tractors like I did so this truly is a dying way of life Especially with my family. I feel sorry for him because I know there’s a lot of quite good things out here to learn, but they’re always in a hurry so I’ll watch the videos when they come out and enjoy them thank you so I’ll watch them by myself. Thank you, Pete and Hillary

[@glennrubel4326]

I enjoyed it, especially the silent moments of nature.

[@emilydeaton1698]

Good morning, Pete and Hilary. I have to say, this is probably my favorite video yet.

[@dalegunderson4135]

I really enjoy the very indepht tractor build videos. Not just the actual work but the importance of each step and why you do it in that order. Would love to see the truck engine build follow that educational flow.

[@marionberry6909]

Most people fail to see the serenity and calmness of winter, until it becomes not so serene and calm😎🙃❤️😀

[@colettenewell4634]

Keeping a positive attitude has never been more important. All the best for your future endeavours whatever they are

[@alfonseca9284]

Hi Pete, You are so fortunate to live your life as you want. And we are so fortunate that you share it with all of us. Great video as always!

[@dougdavis4439]

Pete, your down to earth, grounded, perspective, and insights are soulful. I greatly appreciate the time you spend putting these videos together and sharing that. Thank you, honestly.

[@Melissah9812]

Beautiful in the snow!! ❄️. Thank you for sharing

[@Rangersly]

This was a perfect video. ASMR level with the peaceful and calm rythm of your voice, the wisdom, the farm life. Nice portrait of you and Hilary's daily routine during the winter time. Must be so nice to slow down time and get into more personnal projects.

[@joerodrigues3816]

Again many thanks for sharing your experience with us all and hope you and your family are doing well and staying safe thanks again

[@karensmith4336]

It's days like this that remind me that I'm no spring chicken. Enjoy your videos and living vicariously and warm.

[@ezone913]

Making good content is a lot harder than folks think, and even harder to present. Nice edit, Pete. Thanks for sharing another chapter. -EZ

[@AntManBee19]

An oasis although a bit chilly surrounded but protected from all the craziness. Something we could all use. Thanks Pete.

[@mylovelycrazylife]

I totally agree with slowing down at this time of the year. For me, it’s time to catch up on all my outdoor projects, and I enjoy the post-summer yard and garden cleanup. Truly my most favorite part of the year. I will literally spend all day outdoors 😊

[@marknunya3035]

Thanks Pete for always being and keeping it real 👍 💯 love your enthusiasm and thoughtful energy

[@waynemoore8730]

Us southern boys see very little snow in the winter so it’s nice to be able to watch it progress on your farm.

[@electronictrip]

Same here in TN . freezing cold and snow! I love seeing your animals even if it's the same routine. Ezra kitty is such a rascal, i'm glad he catches mice in the hay!

[@chuckstrasbaugh62]

Loved this "pastoral" video, Pete-and I never take for granted all the thought, then editing, and so on, that go into the making of your videos. You're better at this than most. Good for you. Good for us! BTW, your voice-it's tenor, its cadence is so calming. It's really therapeutic and a wonderful part of what makes Just a Few Acres so special.

[@jimlong527]

So nice to have nice normal stories without the daily drama of the world today. Pete is so correct the way he runs his life, we may not be able now but he gives us direction if you can just fit in a few hours.

[@lsweeten1971]

Post what you can, when you feel the need. I'll straggle along and enjoy the journey.

[@rge2410]

Great video Pete. Yes winter on the farm is a great time to reflect and refresh your spirit.

[@coffeeserver]

I truly appreciate you and the family.

[@royceblack8825]

seeing your videos always brightens my day thank you

[@andrewpaige6571]

Pete, I cannot tell you how much I thoroughly enjoyed taking us on the jury even in this snow that you have. Thank you for allowing us to understand how things work and what to focus on. Have a great and wonderful year.

[@shirleyjames9697]

Good morning! What a very pleasant surprise to see a video out today. Best channel on utube.

[@asdisskagen6487]

Thank you so much for taking time out of your day to include us in your life. Blessings to you and your family. 🙏♥

[@johnwagner1539]

Please keep at it I enjoy the story of the farm. Thanks John

[@jerryfischer3988]

Farm life mirrors our life. Seasons each with their unique character ❤

[@stevewhite4621]

Hope you all have a blessed holiday. Love to see what's next on the little farm.

[@PhyllisGentry-b8n]

Thank you so much for this video! Just what I needed after a couple crazy days here in Michigan. God bless you and your family! Be safe and keep warm!❤

[@PatR-e3e]

Enjoyed your beautiful farm views, without having to get out in the cold. Thank you Pete. Your video as very well done.

[@davidbaker690]

Looking forward to building the shop. Love the animal videos as well.

[@davidwgilmore]

I'm with you, Pete. I grew up in central Ohio and moved to southern California in my early 20s. I've spent more of my life here than there and I STILL can't get used to subtle seasons. It sets a certain rhythm to life that I miss.

[@buckwheathollowfarm]

Thanks for taking us along and hope that you have many more years of the "mundane" daily chores. We enjoy moving hay, and feeding (watching) the animals!

[@bernardjones6162]

A very calming relaxing video! Great to see you and Hillary in good health and enjoying your lives! Deo Gratias

[@bubbles3332]

I feel you on being alarmed my development Pete I live in the rural south and I just have always felt so at peace with nature and all of the development is making me so anxious. so iv'e been looking at ways to get involved. Building new housing isn't a bad thing but I do believe American style suburban sprawl is because of it's endless appetite to gobble up farmland.

[@billb3487]

Thank you Pete for another great video we share enjoy them you and Hillary. Just enjoy your slower time and each other.

[@B4UClose]

It's a peaceful time of year to relax and rejuvenate!

[@Limogi]

Very glad you are doing what you feel is fulfilling your purpose. 🤗

[@shnobi24]

Hey Pete, that last statement about winter was spot on. Slow down in life , think about where your are and where you want to be with a positive attitude.

[@geraldharkness8830]

Always love your videos pete so peaceful at this time of year thank you!

[@michaeld_68]

I always like and enjoy the videos. Thanks .

[@blankenmom]

I love that you change things on the farm. As we're setting ours up, it's nice to see that things will change and it's a good thing.

[@quicksilver4547]

I just love the tranquility of the farm! Yes there are the busy times! But the tranquility of the Christmas season is so delightful! Merry Christmas Pete, Hillary, and family!

[@TheDeadMan3848]

Peter, the kids absolutely love your channel. ❤

[@cekfraun]

I absolutely enjoyed this video, Pete. It's so peaceful and relaxing to watch you and/or Hillary with the animals. I will never tire of it. I hope civilization doesn't encroach on your farm. When my husband died, I thought I was selling my farm to an individual, but it turned out to be a developer. When I realized that, I tried to back out of the deal, but they said they would sue me. Now my former farm/woodland is a subdivision. It kills me to see it. 😢💔

[@houstonhammond2732]

the last 30 seconds is exactly what i needed to hear right now. Thanks Pete! Now, off to the wood shop!

[@stevemccoy8138]

Hi Pete, I always enjoy your videos . I'm sitting here warm and sipping hot coffee, watching and remembering my time on the farm that now seems like a lifetime ago. Have a Great Day. 😊

[@danamartin9734]

Great video Pete much injoyed 😊

[@stoneinthefield1]

Devorced from nature…. Perfectly put. Ithat is my time in life right now. Thanks for taking me away if only for a few minutes.

[@David7pm]

A wonderful video! I could listen to you all day. You have a wonderful calmness and a natural ability to talk and educate. Enjoy the "downtime". Thank you

[@brycewiborg8095]

The Autumn sense of urgency it fun followed by the slightly less stressful winter. When I finally have to retire i will miss that. Thank you Pete.

[@Julia_Teeker]

A video like this makes me think your channel could really be a successful TV show. It’s just wonderful. ❤️

[@clee3133]

Great video, Pete. Included all my favorite things about the channel - philosophy, animals, and scenery.

[@Kelleena1on1]

Hi Pete and Hillary, this is my favourite kind of video where we get to be an audience to your heart and your mind where you walk through your farm explaining your thoughts and your processes because not a lot of us live on farms and farm life is a certain kind of way it’s good and it’s tough and most people in the world’s. Their jobs are at an officer in the community, which is a whole different world from a farm a Homestead anyway my heart is full after watching your video. Thank you so much for sharing your days with us and even trying new things that would stimulate you. It’s very creative and effective and I’m sure I speak for everyone that we appreciate youboth. Thank you.

[@wildkingdom2012]

You are a lucky man, Pete. Not saying it's not a hard job you have, but it must be more rewarding than the 'normal' jobs most of us have. Sharing this with us is much appreciated.
