OUR memorable MEMORIAL DAY!

- For the last few years, we’ve been doing a yearly gathering here at the farm on Memorial Day. Some of them have been fairly good size, like last year… where we probably had a couple hundred people in our back yard, celebrating the weekend that we moved into our farmhouse 20 years ago. So this year, though it’s been an unusual last couple of months, we decided to go ahead and have a smaller gathering with some local friends and families.
I’m aware that there are lots of folks out there that are still in full quarantine, not leaving their homes and not gathering with other people at all yet. But here in the county and town in Tennessee where our farm is, life is pretty much back to normal. The restaurants and most of our businesses are open and neighbors and friends are starting to spend more time together in smaller and larger groups. I know that that probably upsets a lot of people, and I understand. I totally respect where you might be geographically and also personally about things today. But at the same time, I hope you can respect where we are.
So on Monday afternoon... we had a nice little gathering all set up and at 3 pm Indy are were ready for friends to arrive, and the sky let loose and the rain fell hard!
Fortunately, twenty minutes later the sky cleared and we all had a wonderful time sharing a meal, catching up on life, and watching our little ones play together in the playground. But probably my favorite part of the day was just before sunset, we took the kids for a hayride.
* special thanks to Aaron David Thomas, for grabbing his camera and capturing/editing that wonderful moment. It’s one of my favorite Memorial Day memories ever.

Since my birthday, 4/25/20... I’m doing a daily FLOG (farm + vlog) here on CZcams. I’m doing my best to make something and share it… EVERY. SINGLE. DAY. (...or as often as I can with a working farm to run, tv shows to make and a sweet little six-year-old to raise).
This is FLOG #23.

* Music from Epidemic Sound.
It’s ok , the lawnmower is just farm music, thanks again for the breath of fresh air..🤗😘
Haybines, combines, forage choppers, and Bigass Tractors make Farm Music.
Lawnmowers make suburbian tunes !! Listen closely and you'll hear the difference.
Agree. I haul parts for John Deere so it was truly music to my ears. Nothing Runs Like a Deere :)
and then the sun came out☀️☀️☀️ and all was well, and God‘s beauty showed through 🙏
Nice to see happy times and normal activities again.
Flog 23 already. These daily flogs get better and better daily. Every captured moment is so special and every camera angle was done so perfectly. Most enjoyable to watch. Rory your mild mannered nature and your country tone puts my soul at ease. Your family is so lucky to have you. And from the way you all are together they sure love and respect you. Everyday the simplest things become these amazing flogs. Thanks for taking the time to make them daily. ❤️
These moments in time captured by your words and video are a blessing to many, including me....
Love your stories and shows trying to stay up may God Bless y’all
Beautiful memory making.
❤❤❤❤
bless you Amen
The memories you are creating will forever be engrained in Little Indy's heart and all of those who were with you. May God bless you.
What polite children. You are a wonderful loving dad and friend Rory. I am hoping to make it to an event or concert,and would be super blessed to meet you. Love to you all.
RORY!! You make me want to have more children and move to Pottsville! LOL! Now, that's never going to happen for multiple reasons, but if I were 10-20 years younger, I would! Seriously, to live in your community, my children have the opportunity to attend a one-room schoolhouse, and spend special occasions with the Feek family, enjoying a hayride sounds like a beautifully written story from a book. You're such a blessing to your family, friends, and the entire community. Thank you for sharing your life, and I look forward to revisiting the farm when the concerts begin. Hopefully, that will be very soon! For now, we watch your Flogs (we look forward to every single day) and dream. THANK YOU for taking the time to share your life and beautiful little Indiana with all of us.
Thank you for sharing your wonderful videos and stories with us Rory. May God bless you and your family.
Thanks for having us over, Rory, we loved it and our kids had a blast!
Awe. Danny's just enjoying that new mower! Glad you all are able to get back to some normalcy!
How fun! 😄💚🌞
Lol go cowboy Danny!😁👍
LOL, the lawnmower noise! Wow, that rain! Great hayride with Farmer Rory! ;-) Sweet little ones...all thanking you afterward...love it! Thanks for sharing, Rory!
What a blessing that your back to normalish,just seeing others having fun together warms my heart. Thanks
Beautiful countryside, hayrides are the best!
What a beautiful day it turned out to be!! There’s nothing like a nice peaceful hayride 😊 Sweet story!!
Well hello Rory Feek and your rural community. I'm Patty and just have to say with every flog, moving to a small town like yours seems perfect. You are such a sweet and kind man who is always bringing joy to the local kids ❤. Your videos make me smile 😃. God Bless You Rory Feek 🙏
🤔🤔🤔. Oh how I remember living in TN making party plans then seeing massive clouds coming from the southwest. Racing home to take laundry off the line cus once I’d forgotten and we never found hubbys shorts and shirts all blown away. But rain would soon stop and we’d have a few more hours to celebrate our Memorial Day and then rain back again. Judging from the sky looks like hayride was just in time. What a perfect date to celebrate living in your beautiful home. We’re still not doing what we did months ago cus the numbers keep rising in our county. And I’m still recovering from being taken down by this virus. All I can say is that it was the worst sickness I’ve ever had and I still have not gained my strength or can handle much food without losing it. No blame for how people choose to respond to this but doctors orders is stay at home and don’t take a chance. So I get a chance to enjoy these flogs and maybe dream about once upon a time where this was only a thought and not our reality. And pray a little prayer for all of us throughout this world. Perfect video of a perfect day even with the rain and wondering if you really wanted to be out on that mower lost in thought as you groomed your beautiful place.....home. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Thank you Rory for sharing your life and stories. God bless you all! Joey would be smiling! I teared up as you went passed the cemetery. 😥
Always wonder what it would be like to belong and be part of a family. And to belong some where and feel at peace and feel loved. You all are so blessed beyond blessed.
I have my own great memories of hayrides as a kid. Such a great past time activity.
Thanks for sharing....Making memories♥️♥️
Rory I want to let you know I love your flogs.But the best thing about your flogs you always manage to make me smile. because your such a sweet kind man. God Bless you and Indy everyday.

Hi Rory & Indy. I think those of us in the country have a lot of advantages. We haven't been overly impacted by this quarantine thing because we live clean, simple lives.We are truly blessed as we continue to pray for the rest of the world. Country Blessings

What a great time for everyone and a hayride - FUN!!
That was funny to spend it with your family. I’m 77 and my children would rather I stay home with my pacemaker. I try to do what they ask so they won’t worry. Pray for my daughter as she is frontline doctor in ICU here in Theda Clark Medical Center. I know you are prayer for the pandemic. I love Sweet Indy. I love your book. God bless. I have missed any of you vlogs I loved the pod cast with you neighbor Doctor. Is he a jewel. You are a blessing.
Heavenly Father i pray your hedge of protection around our workers that are doing their best to help others. Father keep them safe and bless them for their work. Father i know in time this to shall pass. In the name of Jesus i pray 🙏❤
Thank you for the memories. I remember those days in Texas , the sunsets,horse back rides, country fairs,and watermelon eating contests. Most of all I miss friends and family. Thank you ,for taking me back to a simpler time of life.
You are a great Dad and Indy is so precious, too. Love you both, Pam. 🌹.
Little lady at the end cracks me up! Thanks for sharing. Blessings to you and yours.
