    Every time you start that "H", I can close my eyes and see and hear my grandfather starting his, and I remember the smells of his tractor shed!

      I'm right there with you. My Uncle's got rid of his H while I was away in SE Asia on a Government sponsored field trip. It didn't seem like a big deal then but it didn't take me long to realize what a loss it was. Here's to our Grandfather's who worked hard every day and lived the best lives they could.

      Same here but it was my uncle! He had three Hs and a 424, later a 684. I still remember when it was hay cutting time, my uncle and boys, my two cousins, would be running the road together with those farmalls and ganging up on some fields with sickle bar mowers. They could flat lay down some hay that way.

    Hey everyone who've been watching Pete's farm videos since the beginning, and man, does his farm feel familiar now? It's like you've been there yourself! Pete's a master at turning everyday farming into entertaining and informative works of art. It all seems effortless, but we all know it's not. Remember when Pete had to constantly adjust his GoPros to get those incredible angles? Now imagine setting up cameras, driving the tractor, stopping to adjust angles again, all while filming. It's a one-man show, and the finished product flows so smoothly you wouldn't guess the work behind it. Speaking of one-man shows, who can forget Pete flying the drone while driving the tractor? Looked easy cutting hay like that, right? Thankfully, his new drone can follow him hands-free, like in this latest episode. This episode was perfect for me. I got a virtual ride on a classic tractor, learned some amazing gardening tips from Pete's expertise, and all while feeling like I was right there on the farm. Pete, you truly bring the farm experience to life for your audience. Thanks for everything you do! Dan in Oregon

    Thanks Pete and Hilary! I liked this video a lot. I love all your videos but this one has a little bit of everything I like about your farm. But above all 2 things, the crazy running of the calves that are so happy to be in new pastures and your conversation at the end. I don't skip a single one of your videos and please never stop making those dad jokes, they are the spark of the video! Until next time, take care!

    Many memories come back of the time when I was young and used to spend time at my aunt and uncles farm in Iowa. he was strictly a Farmall man, and I remember working with him and my cousins on the farm. I was born a city kid, but I always felt like I should have been born on a farm. Thanks for all you and Hilarie do for us Pete. I never miss an episode.

    Pete, I love seeing the hay cutting and baling, and clipping pastures. It was some of my favorite things to do as a younger person. Time and genetics have not been kind to me over the years, so that's part of my life is pretty well done, but it makes me smile to see and hear the old tractors run, and the gorgeous drone video of the pastures and fields being worked. I know it's a lot of extra work on top of a tough job, but I do enjoy it so. Thanks for making a whole lot of us happy.
    I like a lot of the other stuff, too. Life on a farm makes for some really good TV..

  • @madampolo
    @madampolo Před 2 dny +2

    I'm sure you got several Texas A&M teeshirts, and I am one of the ones who sent one to you. I've seen you wear one three times now. I would love to go to your farmer's market but it is over 1,600 miles from me in Texas. We've had so much rain in June that our grass is very tall. It needs to be cut, but it is so hot out there. I do hope we'll get more rain in the summer months though. You can't say your tractor is 84 years old because you completely rebuilt it. Only the frame is that old, the internal parts are either brand new or rebuilt. I love your channel! Thanks for making these videos.

    Thank you Pete. Watching your videos is a great source of enjoyment for me. As we approach the Fourth of July, Independence Day, and watching your video, I am reminded of how awesome our country is, even if there is political and social division and instability. We are still the greatest country on Earth and I love the virtue and knowledge you exude that supports my belief. Farming is a lost art and apparently coming under attack across the country, if we are to believe other post.

    Hi Pete! Love seeing the H out working. When I was a little kid, my grandfather had an H and he and the neighbor with a John deere A, would race each other on a country road. The H would always spit and sputter like yours just did and my grandfather would lose. He could never get it to run in road gear no matter how much he and my dad would work on it.
