    When you talked about taking your bulls over to the north farm it put me in mind of my when my grandpa and two uncles would gather at the ‘main’ ranch after their morning chores were done, to have coffee and discuss their days plans. There was a north property that they referred to as the ‘north place’. Ahhhh….memories!!

Makes a normal fix it job more difficult with all the cold water and everything. Hang in there. You got it in the end and it is working. Yeah!!!!!! Cold weather complicating everything. Oh my. Hang in there. Warmer weather coming. See even your head gate did not want to work. Busy day for you and dad anyway. You both just keep getting along. Thanks for everything. You both take care.

    A couple of weeks ago we had over 150 hours below zero. We have six hydrants and six water troughs at the stables, I spent several hours trying to keep hydrants working and enough water. I see you working in this video and I started to get cold again. Ya gotta feed' em. They gotta have water. When it's below zero with a north wind they need shelter. Regular watcher, I admire your work ethic.!

    I started watching Brian, Cole, and Jeff's videos while recovering from my recent knee replacement surgery. I'm a new fan. We manage a family farming operation in the central Indiana corn belt. The family who farms our ground is a multi-generational family and one of the few private swine herdsmen still standing. We're in a standard corn, soy bean, and wheat rotation. We share tornado weather like you, but your winters are beyond brutal. It's obvious you three each could outwork any other three men, just like us Hoosier farmers. This is the first KZread channel I've ever subscribed to. Stay safe
