Hello guys, I've been subscribed to you for a long time, at least 5 years, but I'm not one to write comments when I don't have nothing constructive to say. However, I decided to write this one, to thank you. I've lost my mother 3 days ago to cancer, she was my mother, she was my best friend. Watching your videos helped me take my mind off of my grief, so thank you for being you, thank you for bringing a ray of light in the darkness that has become my life at the moment, for reminding me there's so much more to life than the sorrow for losing a loved one. So, thank you.

Thanks for another great video. It was interesting and enjoyable. Thanks for the camping video parts nick. Very nice tent. Nice you take the kids. Loved that meal. Sorry about the bird in the skid loader. Wow what a mess. Unbelievable. Oh my. Take a while to clean that up. Bob, really glad you got to go to your 50th class reunion. They are enjoyable as you meet old friends and classmates. Quite a reunion at 50 years. Wow. Glad the hail did not do any more damage than it did. Looks like not too bad in most areas. Thanks for taking us along in the combine and showing us the yields and why. Wish it was better for you. Some areas are respectable but still not the best. Been a hard year again this year. Hope the part for the other combine shows soon so both machines can operate. Colby likes riding the combine that is for sure. Good job Scott at changing the sprayer tires on the s Apache sprayer. Nice work. Guess you got the Bug Brute cleaned up for going to the farm show in Illinois I believe. Time for the hand built sprayer to shine. People will enjoy it and you folks also. That low boy trailer that hauled it was a great trailer. Wow. Guess that is about it. Nick I notice a little gray hair. That time in life is coming. Oh my. Thanks Welkers for everything. You take care and be safe. With my blessings. The Iowa Farm Boy. Steve. PS. Enjoy the farm show.

The volcano in Tonga that exploded a year or so ago was estimated to add 70 million tons of water into the atmosphere. Should have another year of more rain and normally dry places will have more moisture in the air causing warmer temperatures. They said it was the loudest noise on earth since the 1800s when it exploded under water. Natural events like volcanos affect the entire earth. Nice to see pea harvest is going well. Koby wants to play with bun bun the middle one. Stay safe and healthy.

Robert, I also went to my 50th reunion this summer. Due to relocating back in the 80's this was the first one that I had been able to attend since my 10th. It's funny how I probably spent more time with people that I didn't know that well in high school than the ones I hung out with back then.

Just went to my 60th class reunion. Adding ten years to the 50th, changes things even more. It was fun, though. It has been above 100 almost every day the last two months here in the Houston Texas area. Definitely hurricane weather coming up. Guys here have good crops in the field, but getting in the cotton may be a problem if we get a storm. Enjoy your content.

15:24 I’ve done tires for fifty years something that might help airing up tires like on your sprayer take a female hose end and take the the core housing out screw hose end on the end of the stem the threads aren’t quite the same but it will work that gives you more air going into the tire and air up easier hope it helps God Bless

Seems to be a lot of positives to using that new sprayer. First, less chemicals is a cost savings, not having to fill up every hour and a half is a time savings which gives you more coverage for your time. Probably less fuel driving back and forth to fill up. Last environmentally you are putting less chemicals in the ground . Sounds like all positive to me! Awesome.

Hello Nick, the joys of life, we call those birds Happy Jacks here, they are very loud Birds, and messy, great job cleaning the road side of weeds, Nick its great to have time with the Family its these years that form fond memories with your Wife & Children , Scott looks like you were having fun with the Kids in the machine,now the Big Boss Kobe with the Bigger Boss Bob, man you are the best of teams ,always having fun while you work, Bob the Peas are much better than last year , I was wondering, Question,I think if you gave that soil a deep ripping before the snow sets over the paddocks you would get much better moisture deep down , meaning its reserves would grow a better crop, I know your worried about bringing up those age old rocks, Question couldn't you roll that ground to make sure the rocks were levelled flat then the snow would go into the ripped soil and hold moisture for the seeding of each paddock, we don't get snow here, but I'm sure it would give you a better chance of achieving a better yield , whats your thoughts about these questions Bob, on that note Fellows loved the video, Blessings to all your Family, Cheers & Best Wishes ,Regards Trevor.W.Bacelli.
