We saw the Eclipse near Meadville, PA. It was a fabulous view with a great crowd of people. Everyone was pleasant and friendly. Traffic home was congested for us and worse for our daughter and son-in-law heading back to Pittsburgh. 💙

Memories of standing on the back of the “same” tractor… hanging on for dear life with my brother and sister as our angry mother took us to school … with about 8” of snow to drive through. 😖

This video is a fine example of why you are popular and loved ! Keep the comedy and childhood stories coming ! Thank you for sharing a a small part of your life with us !

Pete and Hilary, You two make a wonderful team working together on the many tasks to clean up brush along the wooden fence line. Weeding out the garden area and loosening up the soil to allow it to heat up. The heat units where I live in southern New Brunswick Canada generally allow for garden planting around the 3rd weekend in May. ( Which in Canada is Victoria Day Weekend honoring Queen Victoria who reigned over the British Common Wealth which included Canada at the turn of the 20th Century around 1900. It was wonderful to hear your wonderful memory of your grandfather and how he grew pumpkins in the middle of the sweet corn after you made the great attempt as a 5 year old Lad to grow giant pumpkins. In about 5 or six weeks Mother Nature will be in full force.. The Burgers look great enjoy your weekend .

Pete, you never disappoint putting a smile on my face.

Need a new book Pete, "Basic Weeding with Hydraulic Loader for Dummies". Much easier than pulling!

Your story of your grandfather planting a secret pumpkin patch for you was beautiful. Plants can bring so much joy; growing something for another can bring even more. Warms my heart!

Your grandpa sounds like a wonderful man. Thank you for sharing that story 😊

Pete, you and Hilary work together like a well oiled machine 🙂 It’s fun seeing both of you sometimes. 🙂🤣

Ezra!!❤😍🤩🥰 Hilary had Ezra curled up on her lap so she was protected from any harm.

Your life is my dream Pete. I currently am a full time corrections officer. And have a holy farm woth 3 Dexter's, many chickens, and we get a couple pigs each year. My dream would be to make a living off of it. But for now I'm grateful for what I have. You should be proud of you and your family's hard work to get to where you are now.

When you talked about your grandfather, it reminded me why I took a farming. I spent all my spare time working with him in the garden. All the kids are out playing baseball and football. I just love taking time with him.

Os avós se vão de repente e deixam um enorme vazio em nosso coração, um buraco que nunca se fecha. Sempre que vemos algo que nos remete à eles os olhos teimam e lacrimejar. Saudades dos meus, não tenho mais nenhum, todos se foram.. 😢

Something so satisfying about seeing weeds dug up with a tractor, can't explain why!

Your story about your grandfather reminded me of mine and how he instilled a love of farming in me. I wish every kid could have that relationship.

Now that's the best way to clean out the garden. And you have such a lovely helper. Always pleasant and smiling. You are a lucky man.

That wash job on the tractor was so satisfying! I'm excited to see you start gardening again. Grocery prices are crazy and younger ppl need educated about growing their own food.

Your Grandpa must have really loved you. Instilled the joy of farming!

Hey Pete thanks for the video. That shot of you driving and Hillary riding on the back looked like date night. Y'all are a blessing

I really enjoyed this video. Life gave you "lemons" and you made "lemonade". Loved your brain protection!!! I was right in the path of the total eclipse in Dallas, TX. but I think I enjoyed hanging out with you and Hillary more. At 81, and growing up just below Binghamton, I find it so nostalgic to watch your videos. When I was little, my Dad had a chicken farm. Then I married the son of a diary farmer. So, I feel right at home on your farm. Thanks for sharing!

“No stranger behaviour from the animals!” Just the human one.

I'm glad you have found your sense of humour again.

Don’t know what I liked more: Pete’s Grandpa pumpkin story or him in his tin hat. 😂

I think this is the first time I've seen you outside this year with no coat. Spring is here!

My grandfather was a farmer, a man with a true green thumb. His garden was always spectacular and his flowers were begging to be photographed. As much as I tried, I could never emulate his success with gardening. Turns out my grandfather was a terrific farmer, but a poor businessman. I on the other hand was a poor farmer but a terrific businessman. I still can’t determine who was really successful? Pete, thank you for sharing!

My favorite part of this video (and I watch all of them) was the story about your grandfather and the pumpkins. You were blessed.....

Oh my goodness Pete I spit coffee on my keyboard when I saw you put that tinfoil hat on. This was the best thing I have seen all week thank you.

Can’t wait until you take us along on another day on your farm. Your garden is going to be so much fun to see! Thank you, thank you! K

I look forward to seeing your garden Mr. Pete. I remember helping my grandparents in their garden many years ago. Y'all have a great evening!

I love the memory of your grandfather growing you pumpkins. It’s little things like that to help us remember those we’ve lost.

I have a story about pumpkins from my grandfather (this dates back more than a few years.) They would usually plant pumpkins in the end rows of the corn field and one year corn was on the hilly field. In order to pick the corn on contoured rows they had to use a mounted picker on the M. At the time it ran steel wheels and to mount the picker all of the angle iron cleats had to be unbolted. Picking was going fine until he tried to turn at the end of the field, when the tractor stopped moving. The wheels were both turning but no progress was being made. He climbed off the tractor and discovered that he had run over several large pumpkins, which had effectively greased the smooth steel wheels. OOPS!

Love the Spring Garden cleanup one of the most favorite times of the year getting in the garden ready to go Glad you survived the eclipse lol

Loved your foil head Pete ! Lolol You are a funny guy ! We enjoy your videos so much. We've followed you for years. Keep your witty jokes coming ! Thank you for being who you are! We love you and Hilary too ! Along with Miss sassy Patty, Tulip,the "Big Boys,"Ezra, and all the others of course . Thanks for all you do Buddy !

Loved your stories about your Grandfather. I was very close with mine, he stoked my love of agriculture and old farm equipment, I was so lucky to have the time I did with him. You brought back great memories of him today. Thank you for your channel!

Yup your protection worked. You’re still with us. Little old tractor sure looks good after the wash. Charming piece of machinery.

I love your grandpa. what a great guy!

Thanks for the grilling portion ! 😁Glad you were protected ! lol.

We love your jokes! You remind us so much of my brother Ed who passed away in 2014. He had a great sense of humor as well and you look a lot alike!! Loved your eclipse episode! Here is a little joke for you . . . If you boil a funny bone it becomes a laughing stock. That is humerus!!

When I watch you work, it makes me think about me and my wife there’s no easy shortcut. It’s all hard work when you look at it while you’re doing it it doesn’t seem like work. You folks are just like us……. Very fortunate and blessed.🤔🤠👍

Here I go living vicariously through you! I have to say I love your farm life. It is so much work, but so satisfying away from the hustle and bustle of city life. Thank you for sharing.

Thanks for a nice look at your day , love the garden resurrection, brings back fond memories.

We were in the path of totality in NE Ohio. We even had petty good visibility with just some wispy thin high clouds. As it started my wife was the first to notice. The slow dimming of the light was kind of eerie. It's not like a sunset or sunrise at all. The diamond ring effect was beautiful. No picture can match watching the eclipse with your own eyes. The black disk of the Moon is limed with a silvery light. You can see the red solar prominences flare out on the edges of the darkness. Once the totality starts you can use binoculars, which I had, for a closer look. That was even more amazing. In all it was about 2 minutes and 54 seconds of totality. Definitely checked that off the old bucket list.

Wow Pete. The story you shared about your Grandfather was beautiful. I see where you got your good qualities from.

Thanks for sharing some of your memories/history about you and your grandpa

At your best with this one, Pete. The simple things of life: Burgers, vegetable gardening and an eclipse. Fortunately we didn't have one in the UK no need for an exotic hat here. Thanks, great video.

I was more excited to see you tend to your garden than see the eclipse as well. You have inspired me to get mine going. Keep on.

Thanks for your scientific approach to the eclipse. Couldn't stop laughing. Oh, and thanks for the gardening tips.

the video history you are creating will be something to look back on, when you are no longer able I wish I could go back and watch myself Doing the things i Loved to do, now that I am no longer ABLE Thank You for sharing

Man me and my wife saw u all rip up that ground and it makes the fingers itch to get back home to michigan that dark soil u all are a blessing in are lifes and gave us the gift to go back home and start a fram just waiting to sell are house am sure manny ppl here feel this way ty bothe and god bless all u

I love gardening Pete. I enjoyed hearing about your grandfather and his garden. My grandmother was the only person I knew that had a garden while I was gtowing up. It was a small flower garden, but I have some great memories of her in it,. I didnt start gardening till my 50's when my wife volunteered me to start "our" garden. Turned out I loved it, now she hates how much time I spend doing it. Looking forward to a few gardening video's from you., even if its just showing what growing.

😅😂 love the hat Pete.🎉 Glad you are safe. Must say that tractor purred like a 🐈‍⬛🐈🐈‍⬛🐈❤❤❤

Thanks for the foil helmet laugh and corny joke 😆 As always, the farm looks great and your meal delicious. Looking forward to seeing your garden flourish. ❤

Hello Mr Pete and family. Was watching video new beginnings. Maybe for the 3rd time, want to say that we are glad with what you do. We are in our 70s and enjoy all that you do. We have a small farm. Very small. Glad you are starting your garden again. Just wanted to share that. May God richly Bless you. Enjoy watching your dad too. Whether you read this or not, our prayers are with you. They have no endings. Enjoy!

Pete, We were no where near the eclipse here in Virginia. My husband was able to experience the full eclipse by closing his eye for three minutes. He said it was very exciting.

You're a man after my heart cause you said "wa(r)shin'" just I've always pronounced it all my life...God Bless and Keep you and your family. Proverbs 3: 3-7

Good morning! Always good to start the day off with a video of yours!

Grampas can be pretty cool people. I cant believe Hillary wasn't wearing any protection for her head. Make sure you keep an eye on her. I was very glad to see you were wearing protection. That foil head wear had me in stitches. Thank you Pete ya old goofer. 😆🤣👍

Pete you have made me so happy with your garden!!! I loved the video. God bless.

For the first time one of your jokes cracked me up, the strainer joke is a (very rare) beauty. Cheers from OZ mate.

I did enjoy this video Pete, keep 'em comin'. I'm looking forward to seeing your garden grow. I enjoyed watching the cleanup. You're not the only one who didn't see the eclipse. Your's truly slept through the whole thing up here on the north shore of Lake Ontario.

I was sitting next to a retired upstate New York farmer at a campfire on the finger lakes. I asked him what he grew on the farm. He said, "mostly rocks."

Hey Pete it’s always a good day when I watch your channel, blessings

My parents being from upstate NY taught us to say grandpa the way you do. I hardly ever hear it that way, it brought up a lot of great memories. We spent a good amount of time on grandpa's farm, good times.

This is definitely one of your top ten, Pete. That colander quip was sublime.

Great video, Pete. Loved the humour, loved the relaxed style. I’m looking forward to seeing the garden progress through the seasons. Thanks for sharing.

Wonderful story of your Grandfather and the pumpkins. I think you will also be a great Grandfather when the time comes.

Thanks, Pete and Hillary. Yes. They oversold that eclipse thing. It's just another day.

I love listening to your content, dad jokes and all. I’m looking forward to watching you and Hillary plant a large kitchen garden this year because I think I’ll learn a lot.

Loved the story about your grandfather and the pumpkins. Thank you very much for sharing it, Pete.

The garden soil looked so good. Dark, rich and looks good. Having good sources of natural fertilizer helps. I think your grandpa would be very proud of you. My grandpa had a separate patch from the regular garden where he had turnips. Most of his grandchildren have memories of strolling down the hill to the animal barn beside that garden and eventually pulling a turnip, cleaning it in the creek and peeling it with a pen knife. I am fortunate to have his singletree. He never had a tractor. Horses and mules.

Pete you and Hilary always work well together. thank you for sharing this with us

Thank you for another great episode. My grandparents always did a large garden. Grandma canned a lot from just veggies and fruits to jelly's, jams, and salsa. They always purchased in bulk what they didnt grow and they took care of the family and friends that wanted it because there was always a surplus for the two of them. There were many a jars found under the house after they both passed away where Grandpa stored the excess that wouldn't fit in the house. I learned soo much from them. I always got to hear Grandma's farm stories when she was growing up and what she always wished she could have had instead of the city life. I am trying to keep a little of grandmas dreams as I grow my own homestead/farm. I enjoy your videos because there is so much information to take in and every one of them is unique.

Thank you again Pete for another farm video. I understand it takes a lot to make a video so I hope that you don't get burned out and will keep making the Videos.

Such a great video! The story about your grandpa brought tears to my eyes. My grandma always gave me a small strip down the side of the garden. I tried watermelons and cantaloupes but neither ever got bigger than a softball😂 I miss my grandma and those days ❤

It's amazing how quickly Nature reclaims its own!!

A true sign of spring and the change of seasons... the sound of peepers! When we heard them (when I was growing up) we knew spring had truly come. Those tines on the front of the tractor do a great job at aerating the soil! Wish I had something like that when we tilled our garden back in the day! Thank you, Pete! Great episode... 😊

Keep them coming! Love everything you do! Looking forward to seeing the cows on pasture!

Hey Pete, I love corn, and you are the corniest.Keep it up. Yours is in the top 3 of my favorite channels. I also thoroughly enjoy your tractor videos.

Pete, grandpas are always special.

The garden work was nice to watch. Theirs something peacefully fulfilling about it. I'm glad you protected yourself from the eclipse, worried about Hilary, though! Lol. Thanks for sharing, as always.

You made this old man laugh so hard my sides hurt.

You called it right... The older I get, the farther away the ground seems to be so the less I am willing to garden. Pulling weeds, digging, raking... Takes a hard toll.

Such a fantastic video! Loved the story about your grandfather. So touching! And so many good laughs today. Thank you for making my day! You're a great story teller!

This comment is here to advertise my chickens, blame youtube.

It’s not too late for you. Plant some pumpkins in memory of what your grandpa did for you. Just let em grow. Pretty cool you and Hillary riding on the tractor. Enjoy you guys videos. Thanks

BTW, great show, Pete. Something normal on the Internet - very welcome. Thank you for this.

The best view of the eclipse we had in north central Massachusetts was the shadow in the swimming in the water on the pool cover.

What a special memory with your grandfather. I wish I had one like that.

Pete you and them jokes!! I love them!!! Today you made me laugh out loud!!
