  • Today the cattle are moving into their new barn, and I am amazed at how many preparations need to be made.

      Alot of these ranch/farm homesteading channels try to create problems that they fix during the video not here it's just mundane ranch work that we don't mind watching

      Yes, the only thing we suffer from here is the occasional groaner Pete gives us. And we all laugh at them too, every one of them. Blessings 😊

    Let’s just say my two g-daughters live in an urban setting, not much exposure to cows.
    I had to let both of them re-watch this video. The youngest just loves to hear the cows, and was not a bit happy until I restarted the entire video.
    She now walks across the back yard yelling
    “C’mon COWS !!
    Happy Thanksgiving !!!

    We truly empathize with and appreciate your understated introspection, "... I am amazed at how many preparations need to be made." We have our own small-scale cattle operation. Its very relatable to watch you and Hilarie work through projects and chores that are conceptually simple but often require Apollo 13 creative engineering to execute. No regrets. We would not have it any other way. Its one of the endearing qualities we love about the lifestyle and bet you do too. Best to you and your entire family.

    Pete, I really enjoyed this video. I love the part where about the P was giving you a hard time by moving the hotline fence . Your explanation, of how things work. You make it very plain, and I like the fact that you take it as a ride in a humorous way. I hope that you have a wonderful holiday and get plenty of rest. Tell Hillary hello thank you for taking us on this farm journey. I look forward to our adventure.

    The cattle seemed to take right to their new surroundings. Had to laugh at the hog with the hot wire...makes them jump in a hurry. You and Hillary make a good team. Pretty well read out each other's next move without having to discuss every little item.

    Such fun to watch you doing your work, Pete. Such good info you give about electric fencing, etc. I wish I was 40 years younger, had land and money to do stuff with it because your videos are a treasure chest of information as well as entertaining, Pete. Never dwell on the very few people who are just unreasonable complainers. You are doing such an excellent job with your videos. So funny to see you lose your bag of nails and your "favourite pliers"...in your back pocket. Exactly the kind of things I used to do constantly and this is precisely what people can relate to making each video fun to watch. Thank you. Marcel from Saskatchewan.

    How satisfying it was to finally get to the day that the cattle get to see and explore their new winter digs. So fun to watch their reactions and how excited and interested they were. What a great set up! So well worth all the time and work you and Hilary put into it. So much planning was involved! Bossy is attached to you, ya know. That was adorable to watch, too. Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family, Pete. Thank you for sharing your world with us. I hope you all have the most wonderful Thanksgiving ever.

    Humor: The postman was having problems with a dog each time he passed this one house. The dog was always sitting on the porch seemingly waiting and wrun at him barking. Then on one piticular day, as he passed the dog house, the dog was not there. Highly curious, he back stepped and walked up to the door and knocked. A lady answered and asked "Yes may I help you?". The postman looked arpound once more then stated "Hows your dog?" and the lady responded :"Yes I did".

My dad n mom farmed when they were younger so did also big garden. Wonderful life for kids, alot of hard work in all kinds of weather tò, with chickens n dairy cattle , but close to beautiful earth our Creator gave us!! Peaceful out in nature .

    I just love this channel. I never expected that daily farmlife and farm projects would interest me this much. Right now this channel is one of my escapes. Entertainment, tranquility, and interesting technical tidbits are things I get here. I used to love spending time outdoors. Whether it was wandering a farm, hiking the woods looking for fishing spots or a bike ride through the park; I miss it all. I've been in the hospital for around six months due to complications with my heart and lungs from a go around with COVID virus a couple of years ago. Right now I'm in the hospital teathered to an oxygen source. Life can get boring and the scenery gets old. This channel and a few others help me through it. Hopefully I will get better and resume a more normal life at some point. Keep up the great content and my best to you and your family!

    Hey Pete, there is another way of using those click wheel tensioners. There is a hole in the end where the flat steel folds so push the strait wire through and keep going through the hole in the click wheel and leave it where you want it. After you have the wire where you want it go tighten the click wheel
    . so you don't need to cut the wire and tie it off. This way you get a better flow of current. Cheers Jim in New Zealand
