The best part of watching "Outdoors," for me, is it's the antidote to the nonstop bad news that the media dumps on us, daily. Just spending time with a great American family being productive and meeting life, head-on, is a healing balm. I appreciate that you guys avoid politics and, instead, are just being yourselves and staying productive. That's why your audience is international: Everybody's hungry for positive, uplifting messages. Love you guys, bigtime.
So True Addison Gardner....but no bad news here, as Mike says “The Finer Things In Life”!
Addison, you hit the nail on the head! Perfect!
Yes, something positive for a change involving people that love and work together for a common goal, the way it should be!
I'm a retired mechanic , 74 yrs old from north east Scotland , your channels so popular because it's interesting , a good variety of interesting stuff
Mike! I think you need to write a book about your experiences in work. I could listen to them all day! You must have met a ton of characters over the years.
👏👏👏
You know Mike. I moved to Michigan from California 5 years ago. Wife wanted to get closer to her parents. The way I learned to do things out here is from nice guys like you. Thanks for all you do.
Las Vegas, waiting to sell the home and move to the woods!!! You and all the other channels inspire me to get back to my roots! Started on a Gravely tractor with a steerable sulky seat, tiller, brush hog and snow blower, went into mechanics at a local Exxon and drove the tow truck, Rochester NY, went in the USAF for 8 years and drove bomb lift trucks rear steering, fit right in. Ended up in Las Vegas after traveling the world via Uncle Sam, started a landscape company and ended up owning over 200 vehicles, pick ups to End dumps, front end loaders, box scrapers, skidsteers and backhoes.
Hi Morgan’s! This is Jack (retired IT Director now Garage- tinkerer!) from Toronto Ontario Canada enjoying another Outdoors with the Morgan’s video. Wait every morning for your videos! Other than usual pandemic complaints, life is good, no complaints. Be safe and keep the great videos coming!
Salem,Oregon. Watching and being a little jealous of what you have and are doing. Worked for an excavation contractor for awhile so under stand, mostly, what you are doing. 78 years old now and just able to enjoy your family and all your projects. Keep it up.
Dear Mike and Melissa, I am from the Peak District in the United Kingdom. You were asking about what people enjoy about your videos. I am part of a Mountain Rescue Team here in the Peaks. I have just come back home from a search for a missing person, and I often watch your channel just to take my mind off the situation i have been dealing with, be that a Missing Person search or an incident involving an injured climber / walker etc. I find your content, style etc. very watchable, interesting and relaxing. Blessings to all your family.
David Whitmore, thank you for what you do!
Bless you and all of your coworkers. You guys are critical for people who make mistakes. God bless all of you.
Thank you sir for what you do. It takes a heck of a man/woman to do that. Blessings from Texas
I am in Louisiana and I never miss a video, so educational and entertaining.
Forney, Texas. Air Traffic Control Safety Inspector for the FAA. But just a country boy from Missouri. Been with the Government 36 years and can't wait to retire in 3 years. Love watching your channel. Yours and a about 4 more I watch daily. I would love to have the land you do. Here in TX its pretty flat where I am at and the trees are sparse. So watching you guys remind me of home, and you look a lot like my brother, so its a great reminder of home.
Mike's philosophy just because you've been doing something for years. Doesn't mean you've been doing it correctly. Love it thanks and so very true. God bless
Viewer vs subscriber - viewers are there for the transitory experience, subscribers for the continuity and bonds of shared experience.
Loved the story, I worked w a brick crew for 9 1/2 years. They'd hire people left and right, depending on the job. Being a laborer is just simple stuff, right. Well we'd see some guys that couldn't work a shovel to make mortar, really. I got married and started having kids, 3, so I needed a better job w benefits, so I went to Corning Cable Systems, 34 years. I loved being outdoors so after 4 years inside operating machines, I got a job loading cables on flatbeds. Did that for 30 years. Loved it. Keith, in NC.❤
You know Mike, watching you move dirt is relaxing. As for the numbers for your views, they are high, because the content is good. I have watched all of your videos from the 500's up and I have watched lots of them more than once. Great to see Hunter in the videos and it's good that he has you two for parents. I'm in Southern California and things down here are pretty good. I hate to complain.
Very impressed that you can tell a story and operate the equipment at the same time without skipping a beat.
richard here incognito -the way you can finess your equipment you could probably shuffel, cut, and deal a deck of cards - without damaging any of them. love all your vids, both channels. say hi to the huntman and the girls -oh and dont forget the pups and cat - a great part of a family. stay safe and have one great day after another.
I've been watching your channel for awhile now , enjoy it and have picked up quite a few tips over the past several years . Was watching the first post of the excavator the other day and my grandson was glued to the TV , told him if he wants to make a good living without breaking your body down , he needs to consider being an equipment operator . Keep up the family values and videos , God Bless .
Been watching you two for about 6 months. This was the coolest for the information that both shared in this video. Both was right on info. Hats off!
Hi Mike! I'm from South Eastern Indiana and our property is a lot like yours but our woods is only about 17 acres. I've been watching your channel for a couple years now and thanks to you I know how to operate our Kubota BX with front loader. My husband just lets me run it because he knows how much I love doing it lol. We also use it for mowing along with our John Deere x758 as we have about 5 acres to mow every week and not much of our property is flat. I'm now watching Melissa's channel too. We have a border collie and golden retriever as well so I enjoy learning about your dogs and family. Take care. I have a lot of respect for you and your family.
I think that you enjoy your time because you can get very relaxed and it is something you enjoy doing. It takes the stress out of the rest of your day. It helps me to relax and I enjoy watching your videos. I wish that I could have a one that I could play with.
Hi Hunter! Mike, you are a surgeon with that machine! Melissa, the positive energy you bring !
I hate when people refuse to learn and get better. There is always room for improvement no matter how many hours experience we have.
Some people have spent a lot of time getting bad at what they do.
@@rickster9993 Oh man in the horse industry I know so many people that just think they know it all. Refuse to accept any bit of information or criticism to become a better horseman. That goes for all trades. I opened up my mind to learn my whole life. I will never stop wanting to get better at everything I try.
Yeah I hate people think they know it all and will not take good advise. They just wont listen.
@@rickster9993 No idea how this conversation got to Ben Carson pushing a lawn mower lol No clue. I'm just saying if anyone chooses a field to work in. They shouldn't close their mind to learning or getting better at it. It's impossible to know it all. Their should she room to grow. Quebec Homestead Out!
@@HerEcolife Oh yeah especially true in the horse industry ...
Id been doing fence at a farm I own and brought my D6 over and was clearing a fence line and about 8 ft of dirt off the top. My dad stops by and he was like "Hey, let me play around with the dozer so I moved it in the middle of the field so dad wouldn't tear stuff up. Dad had never been on a dozer so the fist thing he said when he got on it was..."Hey where is the damn steering wheel....lol
That kx80 is missing the steering wheel too.... Mike should get a discount.
This is Ron. I'm in charlestown Indiana. And its rained and rained for 4 days now, good for the corn crop. I have a 40x60 x 10 building and I love it and you will love yours to.
Greetings from Lithonia, Georgia. We're (finally) into the summer cycle of afternoon T-storms.
Improving your finesse with any equipment, powered or not, is always fun and rewarding. Those who think they know it all generally don't. Somebody usually has to come after them and make things right.
Love the split screen video while you work and tell stories. I always enjoy hearing about your past work experiences.
hi mike and Melissa enjoy your video and find them relaxing and interesting, born and raised in the bronx ny retired navy and living in Texas thank you for making this old man smile and your endeavors
james hunt usn retired 76yrs
Glad ur doing this Mike.....gonna learn some lessons from ya before we get our building up! We're gonna have to bring in about 30 loads of crush run gravel under our building....never can have too much top soil banked up! Josh #stoneyridgefarmer
I enjoy and am impressed with the (picture in a picture) video editing technique
mike you have this skill set mastered
I'm from Quebec Canada. Awesome for your subscribers. You have great content you deserve it. Nice excavator. I love working with my excavator. It really is relaxing. Def my favorite machine to run on the farm.
I was born in Mckeesport Pa. Raised in Floreffe Pa. (not on most maps) I ran an oilfield forklift In Oklahoma for years. (Case 621) Best compliment I ever received was I was working smoothly and safely. If everyone went home with the same number of fingers they started with it was a good day.
Hats off to your heavy equipment operators skills sir. I used to run a Franklin skidder in downeast Maine right out of high-school. I'm now almost 64 and often miss that job driving heavy equipment.
You are correct Mike. Some people can operate equipment and some can’t. There is a art to operating equipment that requires practice and an eye for detail. Many factors of knowing your equipment, developing a feel for the controls and becoming smooth and consistent. Great Video Mike. As Always, you make your videos interesting and educational for your viewers. Looks like you’re going to end up with a lot more soil after your cut in for a level building...lol.
Mike,
You are my brother from another mother...I just finished a house and my 30 x 54 hobby barn, own a Stihl 261, worked in Heavy and Highway years ago, with clearing just enough woods on a 5 acre wooded parcel on just north of Ann Arbor MI. We cleared the woods, and brought back the hickory and oak for all the trim....Love The Channel
Nice
Spot on Mike. Raking a level pass is hard to master. A matter of touch and feel of the controls. So is digging a level bottom ditch in a marshy swamp area. You do great my friend 👍
My name is Bryan Greene and today is my birthday, 8/11/20. My wife and I live in Peachtree City, Georgia. She is from Clarksburg, West Virginia and I'm from Rocky Mount, North Carolina. We enjoy your videos so much. Say hi to your family and thank you for sharing your lives.
Good morning from Atascadero, CA. The weather has been sunny and milder than usual here. I can completely understand how relaxing operating that equipment is for you because I'm relaxed just watching.
Great narration. It truly is an art form to working with heavy machinery.
Mike and Melissa I am originally from the great state of North Carolina near Greensboro, I lived in a little town called Ashborough. We moved to California January 5 of 2020. I love your channel and I’ve been watching it for at least three years I also watch Melissa‘s channel since it first started
Some folks have 10 years experience....while others have one year of experience 10 times.....great video... Loved moving dirt, I worked in the mining industry in the 70s-early 80s..were satisfying work...🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Hello from hot and humid Dover-Foxcroft Maine. Taking a break from splitting some firewood. Enjoy watching Mike's operator skills and look forward to following the evolution of this project.
I enjoy the videos because ....you are enjoying your everyday life doing ordinary things...and sharing it with all of us. from West Michigan.
Mike, I really enjoy all your videos. I know you know what is on your property, but not everyone knows what utilities might be buried on their properties. I work for a oil and gas company, too, and know that calling 811 before you dig is the best way to get them marked. That way, you don't get surprised with a sudden gush of water or major sparks or explosion!
I have to agree with you Mike, not sure why but there’s nothing more relaxing then moving dirt, must be the little boy in us.
Hello Mike. Thanks for doing what you do, I never know what to expect. One video you are moving topsoil next you and Melissa are dropping trees and splitting wood next one someone is mowing or moving brush. If I watch a channel about mowing yards all I ever see is a guy mowing, oddly interesting but not too much or it gets boring! We live in Friendship Tennessee, Crockett County, West Tennessee. We are like many in America now we are staying out of the radar and avoiding crowds. We are surrounded on all sides by cotton fields and the plants are flowering now making tee shirts😎.
You are definitely right on not knowing what you will get out of the hall. Especially when it’s in the busy time of the year. Usually if there in the hall in the busy time there not any good. Keep up the great work Mike!
“ They should have like a big boy sandbox.” Classic line Mr. Morgan. You do realize that you are living in your big boy sandbox. Enjoy everything you guys do.
Good morning from west central Illinois. We had storms roll across yesterday with trees down and no power in some areas of the city where I work. Storms hit about 1:30 PM and by the time I got off work at 10:30 PM the city of Davenport Iowa was still mostly dark. Could not find gas so I drove a hour to get home. The price of gas was $1.99 a gallon in Iowa but in the city where we live is $2.35. Heard of uprooted trees and also corn on the ground. Hello Hunter, glad to see you and hope you are having a great day. Tractor on everyone
It's always relaxing both operating and watching competent operators working. I've worked around one of your old companies "M" as a heavy highway inspector. I always enjoyed watching Tommy Tomato aka Tommy Tornado do his thing. Definitely in his element.
Tommy lol, I forgot about him, great guy and you are correct with Tornado! He was always a hundred miles an hour and if he had one task he was working on and there were 10 pieces of equipment on site he would run them all lol
Hi Mike
You just described what my dad called a runner! You run here run there and do nothing. We have one contractor here that when one of his employees as we will not call him a operator, the only thing that runs constantly is the hours meter. I will thank him one day for giving me the motivation the hire and do it myself. I live in Tasmania and I am a 6th generation Apple grower. My dad made me go and do an apprenticeship as a fitter and machinist and I loved it. But came back to the orchard in 81 as we had a recession here in Australia and you may have had one to in the US. My grandfather had just died and my dad worked as a timber faller, he is a legend of the bush here. I built my own house with a mate that was a builder and I build some machinery I never compromise there is only 2 ways the right way and the wrong way. When we are pruning the employees ask is this right and I tell them if it looks like mine it is !!! Yes like you I wonder how these people survive. So I have been running my own business since I was 21. I live in the Huon Valley in Tasmania about as far away from you as you can get before you start to get closer again. I watch you videos and it just chills me out I was in hospital last week and the blood pressure was up and the doctor said he was going to give me something for it and I said I will just watch outdoors fist he looked at me, he came back after I watched you and your family and it was down. Regards John
I am an ex construction worker from California a d it is relaxing just watching your family so thank you.
Hey Morgan’s! Reaching out from Penn Yan, NY (Pennsylvania Yankee). Would LOVE to have an excavator for a time. I’d dig some holes around my property... then fill them back in. IT WOULD BE GREAT!! On another note, I work in the Fire Service across NY. This is an area of work overflowing with tradition. The good know that training and education never stops. We can always improve our “craft”. Many, though, are stuck doing the same thing for decades... “I’ve been a firefighter since before you were born, I know what I’m doing!” You’re right! You’ve been doing it the same way for all of those decades. SECRET: All fire will eventually go out, without intervention from firefighters! What will you do to improve the prevention of fire and reduce the property damage and loss of life from fire?
What was amazing about my dad was he always knew what was in the ground by the feel on the controls in the machine....
I work for a materials testing company and around a lot of equipment. I like being around operators that are smooth like you. When I see the guy all revved up shaking the bucket, I'm keeping my distance. We do a lot if work building pads for substations for the power company. It only takes a few minutes on the job before you realize if the operators are good enough to work around without worrying about getting hurt.
Years ago I built a wooden excavator for my son in his sandbox, as I was having my drive put in for my pole building the operator put him on his lap and told him to run it. Boy did he know what to do! It was amazing! Have pictures and what a smile! He didn't go that route, he's a deputy now!
Retired from Ohio and now living in Homosassa Springs Florida. Love your Channel!
Good morning. Start my day with your video every morning. I am a retired forest ranger in the Catskill Mountains of NY. I enjoyed getting paid to hike and work outdoors. Now in retirement, I work on many projects around the house in the middle of 16 acres. Cut firewood, use Alaskan chainsaw mill and hike trails on the property. Kayaking and bicycle when I can in the area. Love the outdoors.
Germantown, Ohio! I'm a Hospice Nurse, but worked construction as a plumber and operated a hoe! Very relaxing! One day I might get to do that again!
I'm like you Mike. I worked for a timber management company in Oregon for 30 some years. Am retired now. But I was able to use cats, excavators, trucks you name it on my property and I so much enjoy running the equipment. The only problem is time goes by so fast when your running equipment. All good here in Oregon except of course the dang covid crop. Have fun!!
I use to work on highway construction along time ago here in Western New York and in Oklahoma. I love operating those excavators.
Great job Mike and Melissa. Really enjoyed watching you handle the KX80, you’re an operator and you take pride in what you do no matter who it’s done for! You’re not afraid to sign your name to the job you’ve done! Great job Melissa, enjoyed your video about your dogs, it was great. Thanks to both of you folks for sharing with us, always worth watching.
I'm sitting in our 40x 72 foot heavy duty steel building. It takes 120 mph winds for Hurricanes and Jet streams and edge or small tornado. We had 100 semi trucks of builder sand and 105 cement trucks. The Dozer was a Cat 8 and was lazer controlled blade. He would take 3 trucks and spread and level and compact. He was busy and loved every minute.
Melissa, I received my Kubota newsletter via email this morning and saw the article on you and the BX.
Hi Mike, Just got back on.and am glad to see everything that is going on in your neck of the woods. I am out here in Portland Oregon and as you have seen on the tellie all of the protesting and all the other things that our city is letting them do.Well so much for that.Am glad to be back so tjhat I can see how you are doing on your new building.Tell Hunter hello for me and I hope to see more of him.
Sometimes I wonder why us adults would spend the time to watch someone dig in the dirt, but I find it very relaxing. I had a backhoe for a while when I was preparing my property for building and it was so much fun. Keep the video coming I’m interested in what you are going to do with the pond.
Nice! Thanks for explaining the operation keeping the bucket ground engaged. I was wondering how you did that. Super show!
I'm from 15 miles N> E> of Duluth Minnesota. We had 2" inches of raun on the weekend..I was a contractor for 33 years and I know you are a good operator, because the bucket is in constant motion.Keep up the good work. i've run a mimi excavator but I was mush better at building buildings.
John from Harrisville, NY . Spot on Mike . I drove dad's 18 wheeler with him , no problem . My brother not so much . You need someone to spell you on that , let me know . Enjoying the building process .
Good to see Hunter. That’s a fun device he was playing with! Mike uses the excavator with such ease... it’s a delight to watch. Melissa, glad to hear you’ve gotten some “me” time to recover. Lord bless the whole family!
Doing a nice job Mike. Surprisingly the way the top soil mounts up. That is one very nice machine.
Mike, Greetings from the island of St Thomas in the US Virgin Islands. I'm originally from Painesville, Ohio. After 15 years on the island I miss NE Ohio/ Pennsylvania area and all we do up there. I have a couple palm trees damaged in storms I need to cut down. I should send you a video. Covid here is getting pretty bad coming in from the tourist from the states. Most islands in the Caribbean won't allow American tourist in. We had our borders closed in March until June and had zero cases until we reopened. The island is 3 miles by 13 miles with a population of 40K, so our hospital is very small. The economy relies almost all on tourism. Covid has been devastating to the island. Your channel is a favorite part of my day!
I still can’t figure out why someone would give a thumbs down. What’s not to like? And if that upset, go home!
They're probably already at home... in Mom's basement.
I'm giving a thumbs down on all the people that don't like this video.........get a life people!
Someone once told me if I don't get any thumbs downs I'm not doing it right lol I don't think I've ever hit a thumbs down button ever! Even if I didn't like what I saw.
Quebec Homestead maybe, but I can’t figure it out.
Thanks for appreciating us I know me and my family really appreciate the content you put out I’m a city boy here in Scranton Pennsylvania and it’s nice to live vicariously through your channels
Gday Mike ,Kevin Hyland here from Frankston Melbourne Australia, I have been watching your videos forever, and enjoy them very much, here in the state of Victoria we are now in stage 4 ,in lock down,and now we have a curfew from 8pm till 5am in the city of Melbourne. and not in the country of victoria,, schools are closed in victoria, over a million people have lost their jobs , my wife and I are both pensioners and we are doing ok ,Praise God ,keep the videos coming , catch you later, have a day.
Yes there is a place here in Vegas called Dig This Las Vegas, heavy equipment playground. They have excavators, bulldozers, and skid steer’s available to hop in and get some seat time.
Good afternoon/ evening. Took a Covid test at 6am today. Yesterday offload at our company cavern and my KW went into limp mode pulling off 3rd rack.
Lucky I've got a job with guaranteed pay/ weekly minimum.
Results will be available tomorrow.
Just N of Lansing Michigan.
Be safe.
You mentioned in today’s video to add a comment from where we were are watching this episode. I am in Pascagoula, Mississippi. I enjoy each video and look forward to each one.👍
Weren't we going to work on the pond?
I mean I know moving top soil and this rig does a great job.
Maybe you could ask Kabota to send me an excavator like yours. The Amish here all have ponds. Most need dirt work.
Thank you for noticing my loyalty to your two channels.
Mark here in Aus. The state I live (Victoria) in is currently in stage 4 lockdown, masks are mandated, no social interaction, not pemitted to be more than 5km from home except for medical emergencv and huge fines for failure to comply. But life goes on and hopefully we will see light at the end of the tunnel.
Keep up with your good work, its something I look foward to every evening.
LOVE WHAT YOU AND MELISSA DO ALONE AND TOGETHER. I WATCH ALL YOUR VIDEOS.
Good morning all, Phil from Kansas City here. Hope everyone is OK after hearing about all the storms across IA and IL. Seems like May and June with the afternoon thunder storms here. Have a Day.
Morning Phil. We got that storm here in north central indiana aswell. I lost three trees that I know of. Just more on the to do list. Could have been worse. Thanks and have a day.
Phil and Michael,
That beautiful, needed storm was a bearin’ down on us and at the last minute the Radar parted like The Red Sea and we never got a drop!!!!
@@oldmanfred8676 that's the way the whole summer has been for us. I stand outside and watch it on the radar. Splits and goes around us. Rain everywhere but where I'm standing it seems. It poured but I think most rain off because it's so dry.. Be safe. Have a good day buddy.
Thank you Michael
Its great to wake up and share a breakfast coffee with the Morgans. I welcome your positive way of life into my house. Thank you. One of your Australian viewers here. Learning heaps from what you guys get up to and loving the way you share. Ive changed the way I stack wood (thanks Mike). My puppy and I watch in the quiet of our winter mornings right now.
Hello from Malone New York. You have a wonderful family. It is so exciting watching you get so much stuff done.
Hello from Ayrshire, SW Scotland. Currently building a 32 ft x 21ft garage with cavity block walls, finished with a Harled render. Been waiting 4 weeks for the 4.8m door lintel. It should be arriving sometime today. With it in place we can complete the roof trusses installation and apply the concrete roof tiles. Can't wait to get it done. Trying to obtain the materials is a nightmare. It seems everyone is using the Covid pandemic as an excuse for every mistake or delay. Anyway, hope you get yours done quickly.
Oh, by the way, a day hire for an excavator is £60, or £200 for the week. And £650 for a month, a lot cheaper than on your side of the pond it seems.
Hi Mike.... from Winchester Va retired 11 years now..... worked for DHS
Hi Guys Alan here from sunny Devon in the UK, Had my own plant hire company a few years ago and had a kh191 ,forerunner to what you are using. We would use a 3ft or a ditching bucket for stripping top soil and for moving mass soil helps. Sorry not saying how to tell you how to suck eggs!!! Nice to see a hirer greasing the machine. Our constant battles in repairing bushes even after giving a grease gun etc
Getting ready for a big move to Corry, PA. I worked for a Machine Shop here in Augusta, GA and we got notice Monday that the shop is closing. I recently inherited land in Corry and will be moving all my tractors and equipment. My mom past away from Lung cancer in February so nothing to keep me in Augusta. My dad and sister live in Corry and I have another sister in Cleveland so I will be with family.
Excited to watch the progress. I have a 48x72 going up in late October / early November. Just a few hours down the road in Northern Ohio. Hoping to see a few "lessons learned" for my build!
Hey Mike, i'm in Houston, refinery worker, when my wife and i leave the house, i put on your channel and hit play all so my dogs can watch while were gone. Hope it helps your views. Lol.
I thoroughly enjoy watching your videos Mike and Melissa and your whole family Ontario Canada enjoying and learning
North Central Indiana...lol...MIKE MOVE THAT LUMBER PILE!! have a day!
I'm sure he's trying to find a place to only move it once.But he's running out of room! LOL
Our grandkids came to stay with us last Christmas...and I was in the middle of building up my side yard with select fill and had set the topsoil in next to the project. They had all sorts of neat presents, but they played on that dirt pile the whole time they were at Poppy’s and gamma doody’s (Judy). So we are getting them a load of topsoil for next Christmas... lol. BTW. We live in Texas and things are booming again. of course I own a HVAC/R company...so it is very busy for me now. Lol
The big sandbox in S Las Vegas was on my list of things to do this week on our 25th anniversary ( today ) trip.
I was really looking forward to some excavator time as I have never been in one.
Unfortunately postponed until Vegas opens up a little more.
There's always next time.
Hi Mike, I enjoy digging dirt also. Ron, Fayette, Maine. We are all well here.
You and your family are doing a great job, Thanks. Howard from Toronto Canada.
Drinking coffee and watching the Morgan’s is how i start my day , hello Hunter ! Great video of watching the excavator! Have A Day!
A benefit of this video is that it demonstrates very well why the 16 yard dump truck of screened top soil (for which you paid $30-50 per yard with trucking) doesn't go very far when you start spreading it around your yard...
Great video it sure is dry there every time you dump a bucket load the dust is flying it's the same here we really need rain thanks for sharing
That excavator looks like a pleasure to operate. Appears that it is very smooth very responsive very tight so it makes being precise relatively easy. The hydraulics look very smooth and responsive also. It must be a pleasure to have a machine that new to work with.
Weartherford Texas here. It’s hot as Hell here. I’m looking forward for my heel to heal and get back to working outside.
Greg here in central Florida, I don't have topsoil I have sand and if you strip it off you have more sand. I don't have a big enough tractor to hit rock. But seriously, I have gotten better at running my tractor by watching your videos. Keep up the good work.
