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.

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.

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.

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

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

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

pete i enjoy watching your videos seeing you and the cows ane many more things the cow look big hope you get some rain and moistur have a nice day pete.

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

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!

Just realized how close you are to me only about 45min North of our farm! Keep up the cool videos!

“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. 🙏❤️

I am happy to hear that you are getting some pigs

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..

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

Good morning! I hope your week is amazing. Thank you for another wonderful vlog.💗

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!

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 ?

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.

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

Holy cow, life is great Pete!! That was the most excellent into dude!

Your videos always make me smile. I just finished your book, which was awesome, and relaxing reading! My wife has it now and likes it as well as I did!

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

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

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

Tx for showing me how to repack. Got to do this with my JD40. The difference, it will take me all day. 😁

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

Dad jokes are getting better and better. It's already early summer down south. It's fun to watch a yankee carrying on. Thanks for sharing.

Thank you for doing business in Nebraska!!!!

GOOD AFTERNOON PETE

Haha😂 loved the joke! Enjoyed the repairs

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

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

Beef cows sure look happy.

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

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

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

Thank you for showing your vegetable garden and mentioning another side of your farm. Hope folks will be motivated to start a veg. garden. I started my first veg garden when I was about 6 years old. My favorite - beets. My grand parents were farmers. A mix of sheep, cattle and veg.

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.

Damn Pete, you've been busy! I look forward to each of your videos. Thanks for taking the time to post.

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

Good job!

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

Hey Pete I was out your way last weekend ...Went t the farmers Market on Saturday sadly i missed ya .....You guys need a much bigger parking lot .....

Sure enjoyed watching this one. You taught everyone how to correctly repack wheel bearings. You’re a great teacher, Pete. Thank you for taking the time.

I'm glad you got those spindles worshed. It's very pleasing to have good clean worshed spindles.

The hubby and I still love watching your videos. And the dad jokes still crack me up, which is hilarious because my husband said that I was born without a funny bone. Anywho, you and your family have a wonderful day.😊

I love watching you move the cows and hearing them munch on the grass.

Thank you Pete!
