I've had a lot go wrong in my life lately & I've been so depressed that I've been to places that I pray most humans don't experience. So I stopped watching this channel for a while because I kind of stopped doing anything. I started watching the channel again this morning and I started crying because it made me so happy for the first time in a really long time. I don't know why i'm telling anyone this but I can't get over how much peace and joy this channel brings me. Love you all.

Hang in there kiddo.... People are under so much pressure today it's even more difficult on younger generation. Stop watching the "news", it's hateful, manipulative propaganda, REMOVE people/ so called friends who don't treat you with respect and honesty..... Surround yourself with positive people, NOT people always complaining/ negative...... P.S. Try to avoid fast food (actually it's toxic), and eat better food. You'd be surprised how crappy food messes with your mind/ mood swings, etc. Good Luck, God Bless

My Advice to you is to surround yourself with good friends and family. Most importantly, tell them how you feel and watch your depression melt away. Don't let yourself be fooled, look around and feel how loved you are. I don't know you but I do know what your going through. Remember that this phase in your life is just temporary, tomorrow is a new day and a lot can change quickly. May your life change for the better, God bless you.

It was so nice seeing you smiling in your garden. It's now time to rumble and enjoy your plantings. Your bearing segment is something that's lost in today's society. Do it yourself repairs is a lost art. Meat chicken growth rate is amazing. Wishing you continued successes and good buys on May 4. Being with your Dad and son is priceless.👍👍👍

Good morning Pete, you have created your own piece of heaven here on earth. You are one good man so have fun with your cows and I’ll be watching.

Memory is tricky. As you describe the morning and the various tasks, the smells that are fifty years old returned to my head. If you would have asked young me if I would miss the farm with all the smells and hard work, I would told you never. But in my old age, I find I do. But then memory is selective, often glossing over the negatives. Pete thanks for the vicarious experience.

I finished my first restoration project over the weekend. It was for my sae project for ag class at school. I got a 100 and took it to school yesterday and showed it to my class and the county superintendent. It was a mcormick deering 30 manure spreader. It was my grandpas and I got the decals from maple hunter decals

Hi Pete, I really enjoy your channel. Seeing you work on the tractors has given me a lot of confidence and context to properly take care of my own equipment and be less intimidated. I didn't grow up with the benefit of seeing how to do mechanical work, so it's quite a hurdle.It's also helped me get over my desire to over-build or make perfect plans when developing our homestead, instead relying more on the resources at hand. One area I'm still unsure about is handling and managing all sorts of combustible and other materials. How do you handle rags covered in grease, lacquer thinner, etc.? Do you ever get concerned about storage? Disposing old oil? Thank you for the time you put into this. It's greatly appreciated and the seasonal variety of topics is great.

Hi. Waste oil goes to my local NAPA to be recycled. Rags soaked with volatile solvents are laid outside until they are dry, then thrown in the garbage. I only use cotton or paper for rags, and oily/greasy ones are used as fire starter in the wood stove.

Loved that joke....so bad it's good!! LoL..... Thanks again guys, enjoyed this video.

When I was little, I was helping my Pappap move his Angus. I was holding the fence gate hooks (they were the old ones with a pointy hook rather than a blunt one). I had too much slack in the fence and a cow caught the fence with her leg. Being little,I couldn’t hold on, and that hook went right through my hand. I held my hand up and it was dangling from it lol. I bare that scar proudly. I always cringe when the cows drag their feet over wire to this day (mine included). Sure glad they have safer hooks these days!

Darn it simple projects i can still learn stuff on! The grease!! Lol Thank you my kind friend

I’m laughing at your grandpa’s false teeth joke. 😅Good hearing from you. I hope to see you at the Farmers Market if we make it to your neck of the country this summer.

Hi Pete. You seemed happier today on this video. That made me happy.

Please keep doing these videos, it's so refreshing to watch my dreams.😊 Also I love watching you do maintenance on your tractors, good thing for me to learn when I finally get my very own Farmall!!!😊😊

After graduating from diesel college in 1980, I brought back quite a bit of new knowledge about how things work. One was lubricants and how the old reliable standby suck as Quaker state would turn into soap with a few drops of water in the palm of your hand. Ya, I sure poked the bees nest when my brother seen that magic trick. He stopped buying the el cheapo crap and invested in a good quality GP lube from that point on.

Great program brings me back to life on the farm in Nebraska, love it! Love the tractor shirt also!!! Omaha NE GO BIG RED!

You got urself a HOLY SHIRT Pete jajaja thanks for this vide well enjoyed Pete

I’m glad you decided to do pigs this year. 🎉. Happy pigs are hard to find!

Your an inspiration to many I’m just starting my 9.6 acr homestead farm ranch in East Texas and learn a lot from Your videos especially how You carry your self and handel the farm God Bless and thank You

Hey Pete! Have a safe and productive Spring! Keep Smilin!!!!

Your videos are always so relaxing and pleasant. They take me back to a time where life was much more pleasant. I miss my younger days on the farm. I love your outlook on life and many times wish we were closer. Most of the farmers around here have done away with the livestock and have gone to grain. To some people, it probably sounds strange, but I miss the smell in the air from the livestock. We always did both, livestock and grain, and it was a lot of work, but fun. Thanks for sharing and I'll see you later.

Haha😂 loved the joke! Enjoyed the repairs

Thank you Pete for the good start to our day. You are a man, outstanding in your field. I have many church tee’s too, you know the holy ones. Will stop there, never three on a match. Cheers to you and Hill.

That is a nice chunk of steel you are working on Pete.

Pete we look forward to each video, my wife always ask Pete what's for dinner. Have learned much from you about raising chickens for eggs. You and Hillary are great together especially when she says the kids can eat tuna.

When I saw Grandpa's false teeth, I thought it was sickle bar sharpening time. 😂

New t-shirt! Yeah! Cattle are looking happy especially with new grass. Can't wait to see the new calves.

Your video reminded me of a line from an old song: “the promised kiss of springtime”.

I am happy to hear that you are getting some pigs

Pete- if you run out of rags- use that Michigan shirt- it’s good for grease and manure.

Oh boy! It sure is time to take care of those flies! Dang! Great shirt!

Pete, without your cap you are looking a lot like your Dad.

Pete, Thank You for bringing us along on your spring chores . Garden preparations , Work Tractor wheel bearing greasing and repacking. Along with the cattle transfer to a fresh pasture. I'm curious on why Patty the cow isn't polled and still has her horns ?

Well I grew up on a ranch and we would all the tractor and equipment threw the winter in a nice warm shop and that's what we did and ya it is always good to repack the wheel bearings

“My gloves should last a year.” That tickled my funny bone. I loved the hose replacement segment.. very interesting. All the segments actually. Great video. God bless you, your family, and farm. 🙏❤️

Boy this takes me back about 40 odd years. I had to service wheel bearings on AF munitions trailers as part of the munitions career field believe it or not.

Beef cows sure look happy.

A rural life is a simpler life. It is good.

Pete you're the best ! Always a fantastic video love em ☺️

Thank you for the video Pete and Hello to your wife Hillary..my hubby and I owned a 350 acre farm nineteen miles west of the St Lawrence River in Omtario..back in the early 70's to mid 80's..watching your videos these past few years. Sure does take me back home to our farm life ..living for the past 30yrs in Florida..I can relate to the different species of grasses that grew in our fields, our cattle and horses loved it ,but best of all we never had to buy great hay....our hay was square bales, the round baler had not been invented as yet..well might have been but did not know any farmer out our way that had one..not even my uncles dairy farm they had 150 head of Holstein milkers and they had a old square baler...and as you, hay was a big to do as well..keep up the videos can't wait to see your garden...enjoy your spring..

Hurrah! Thunder and lightening here. Early summer for us too. Yes, of course, I'm happy as pigs! Love to all!

Pete when you have to replace the tires the 4 rib tire is great for running in the pasture

Excellent video once again. Cheers….👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

Pigs are coming back!!! YAY!!!

Wishing you a happy spring time and a wonderful year!

I caught myself yelling for Patty. OK, time to go feed my animals ...

Your gloves, with the finger holes, still beat my non-existent gloves 😅

Hi Pete thank you for your videos have been watching for quite a while I'm now retired from farming after 40years and I live in England I admit I'm a lover of international tractors drove a few over the years mainly from the 1980s keep up the good work

That garden soil is looking good

Good day to all..

Always a great day when Pete publishes a JAFAF video. A breath of fresh air when compared to the current unrest occurring in other parts of NY. The farm a beautiful canvas of sights, sounds and smells, especially grasses. ❤ to you and family Pete!

I love that shirt! Me and my kiddos will need them!

me and one of my baby chicks are loving this... hopefully it is a she... but it perks up when there are birds chirping on the show.

Enjoying the direction the farm is taking and watching someone repack their wheel bearings.

When the view was set on small the marks on the side of the block the three of them spelled TOY or TOT. Good to see that the farm is starting up in good health. Take care, jack

I love the Dad joke!

Pete, love your videos! Those caps will deteriorate as they are not UV resistant. I believe.

Thank you for doing business in Nebraska!!!!

Really enjoyed the video Pete. Thanks.

Thanks Pete. Great video. See ya next week

Could see the baby moving in Patty. Great looking cows and farm. Glad the fly line took care of the flies. Sounds like a good choice.

I have wondered for some time what the appeal of your channel is to so many. I believe it is fundamentally that you are a great story teller, keeper of the myths. We all need myths, even as the fringes are doing their best to destroy the myths that bind us together. Pete, you truly are a great storyteller including the bad jokes! We who enjoy you stories, applaud you!

Pete, your garden prep is impressive in my humble opinion. Man, I love moving cattle to new pasture.It's always a great day when moving cattle.

You are ahead for this season. Go spray paint the garden gate, and vertical on trellis, and some top rails in a while sealant paint. Takes one day and great for Mother’s Day gift.

Thanks Pete!

Greetings from Wisconsin. Thank you for your vlog today. 👍🏼

Love gear packing as an art project Pete. Your videos are always interesting and entertaining, sometimes in unexpected ways. Loved that satisfying click your repaired garden gate made when you closed it. Thank you for taking the extra time and effort to film and edit for us in your busy farm life.

I really enjoyed watching you do the front end of the tractor. It took me back to when my son’s friend got his father to help me do the front end I of my Chevy van. He told me to do it and I was happy to do my own work and he walked me through each step and my van ran smoothly for the rest of its days.
