    Golly videos are over way to soon. Drone footage is 150% over the top perfect. Liked the rock assistant in the grader. Wonder if you could try a pair of work pants with knee pads in them. Maybe a sponsor of some sort. Worry about all the time you spend on the shop concrete on your knees fixing anything and everything. Trust me, knees are a bit harder to weld back together.

So keep up the great videos from maybe the best place on earth and i will reminisce about MT. Can you guys see Chief Mtn from your farm? Its sort of a landmark in S.
