Mike, you’re so blessed with Melissa being right there with you working side by side. I said it before and say it again, she one tough lady. Great job on the drain pipe.
Lemuel Casillas I totally agree. I was so lucky too. We have a 20 acre camp in SW Mississippi and she gets out side with me to help maintain the property. Back at our home near New Orleans she took care of the flower beds and I took care of cutting the grass, edging, and weedesting.
Good job on laying pipe Motor Mike. Melissa looks like she has enough power in her legs to be your next tractor! 😃 Dairy Queen. PEANUT BUSTER PARFAIT!!!
Hey Mike, Chris in Lake Stevens, WA I would say, (at least from my perspective) you have the perfect life... Great kids, pets, toys, an awesome piece of property, nearly catastrophy-proof job and a beautiful wife that is your best friend and loves to get dirty like you.
Mike, the work at your Mum’s is looking really good. It will of course, look like a pro-landscaper had been brought in (and one had been: you). All the camera setups help us get into the job, so thanks for all the behind-the-scenes work you don on your videos. It sets them apart from the rest I see. From Central Texas, Have A Day y’all!!!
Wish we still had a Dairy Queen here we had 4 growing up all closed in the 70 favorites was the strawberry short cake teri burgers and pineapple shake Aloha and stay safe 🧁🍍
Not fair Mike, giving Melissa the heavy end of the drain pipe. Getting her tractor dusty and making her pose with the shovel , like a road worker. Love it...
Awww The Beautiful One comes to Save the Day. Careful with those exposed Ankles and Tall Grass. I would be Itching and Scratching down there some awful. You Sure Do Wear it Good tho👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾. Such a Super Trooper to Help Out ❣❣❣ Much 💔and #thatmelissasmile❤❤❤.
When you were talking about getting another twenty two to swing water down toward that lower pipe....I would have lost the bet! I for sure thought you were going to say...well, I think I will just get another section of pipe and will run it all the way down across the driveway just to make it perfect!!
Is it just me or did others find it funny that the excess zip ties was cut off? I myself wouldn't have wasted the time even though it was 30 seconds to cut off because it was being buried. Yes I know I'm crazy.
Looking good. I think mum will be pleased. Also, thank you for cutting the tabs off of the zip ties. Buried or not, that would have drove me crazy. Stay well, stay safe and yall HAVE A DAY 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Everybody feeds their clothes my favorite is spaghetti sauce and chocolate ice cream. Looking good Mike as usual. How does Melissa's tractor run Mike? Thanks for sharing your video. Hello Hunter. Ed
USA like's dam fails maybe they want a spot light the Dam Fails post kinding i think Mike works hard and tries to keep everyone happy. It would be a good spot to get some soil to put over the pipe at Mum's reduce the drop off behind the wood shed as well.The one thing many fail to post about is roll Over Accidents are common on farms and many spots on the trails are steeper than they appear on video i always worry about a vechile tipping over.
I started to laugh to myself for literally about a second and a half when you were cutting the zip ties. Then two things entered my head. With my luck I would be doing something down there with a machine and catch one and create an opening and then be down there in 6 months digging it out. Also, I am a bit OCD myself, I'm the one that has sent a few messages about covering the collar ties on the wood shed with corset blocks! I had to fess up when I caught myself laughing...lol
Hi they don't let houndsmen run bears now in Massachusetts during off season or in season.And that is contributing to the bears overpopulation and coming into town.Just a matter of time before something gets mauled.
You might consider a pair of Edge Tamers by R2 Manufacturing. They make a huge difference in keeping you bucket from digging into the grass and soil when all you want is to move what’s on top (i.e. snow, mulch, dirt, rock). Just a thought, I have them for my compact tractor and they’re amazing at making me look like a pro! Love your channel... My wife tells me we’re getting a Golden Retriever in the fall. We’ve had nothing but German Shepards since we’ve been together (2001). Stay safe!
Bears have just taken my hummingbird feeder. Destroyed 2 bird feeders earlier this spring. They only come when I’m gone. Have given up feeding birds. Mid-Michigan. I also have lots of snakes called blue racers. They keep the mice down. Part of the fun of “remote” property.
Lol...When my husband and I were dating in Austin, Texas, the 50s, I was big on Dairy Queen also. Everytime the DQ guy saw us coming, he knew it was a hot fudge sundae with extra hot fudge for me.
FYI I have my notification bell selected but recently I’m not getting notified when you have a new video. Not sure if you can do anything about it or is it just something youtube does.
You can bend that 15" a whole lot cheaper than that 22 1/2° fitting. A lot smoother on the inside, less spots to snag debris. Cut a 2x8 or 10 to fit inside the bell end to push against, grease the spigot end good & bell the pipe up with the tractor. Put a pile of dirt on one side in the middle & back fill the other side to steer it anywhere you want. That HDPE pipe is pretty tough. A sharp chainsaw is about the easiest thing to cut that stuff. Great job though. Another good thing to do is wrap your joints with some sort of filter fabric, silt fence ect. In Charleston every drainage joint wether HDPE or RCP (concrete) must be wrapped to prevent silt intrusion.
Looks great. Probably a silly question, but do they make a clean-out access for drain pipes of this size ? Just asking because of the bends and it would be a huge pita if the pipe were to get clogged. Anyone know ? Thanks and thumbs up M & M !!
Don't ever cut zip ties at the head if there is pressure on the head. Leave 1/2 inch for eye break. Just saying hope it might help. Love the videos, by the way!!!
Mike, your videos are looking very professional. Very nice job on the drain tile. Having the right equipment and knowledge and help makes for a great job. Have a day!
Did u know that the front bucket is made to back drag with the back of the bucket so u can see every thing like that? I didn’t learn that until I was 50 years old. Make a lot of sense after u do it a few time. It’s beefed up and strait just for it
I noticed that someone left a nose buster on the ground. The rake with the tines pointing upwards, I can't count all the times I got in trouble for leaving a rake in that position.
Young bears born last spring who have left the care of their mothers are venturing out on their own . We have them walking around in the subdivisions here in the Daytona Beach area. Hardly a night goes by that someone does not catch one on a security camera.
that looks like a toy tractor compared to the other ones you have driven on this channel over the years ... and I agree with all of the other comments on here ... you two are truly blessed
Is it me, or does it seem like the BX struggles a little to dig out of the pile a full bucket. I seem to remember the RK fill a bucket almost effortlessly??
Mike why not just buy two of the 22 degree angle pieces and use that extra piece of straight pipe to connect the pipe to the one that goes under the driveway then there no ditch at all
Just a word of caution for Melissa at the 9:51 mark she drops the rake to the ground with the tines pointing up that is a good way to lose that nice smile of hers.
9:47 Into the video and your wife made a error which a lot of people make is she dropped the iron rake with the teeth upwards! 12:10 you can see it! lol
Good morning Morgan's! You truly are a lucky man. Melissa enjoys working with you, and knows what she's doing as well as contemplating what your going to do next, and she's ready with whatever you need next! She really does deserve the pool, as well as a trip to Dairy Queen!👍
Mike & Melissa, your marriage works great. God bless your union. ❤ Great partnership.
Mike, you’re so blessed with Melissa being right there with you working side by side. I said it before and say it again, she one tough lady. Great job on the drain pipe.
Great Lady very lucky man
Lemuel Casillas I totally agree. I was so lucky too. We have a 20 acre camp in SW Mississippi and she gets out side with me to help maintain the property. Back at our home near New Orleans she took care of the flower beds and I took care of cutting the grass, edging, and weedesting.
Lemuel Casillas Inside we shared the chores too. If she was cooking I would help with the prep. If I was cooking she helped with the prep, etc, etc.
Melissa you need to remind Mike that is YOUR tractor 🤣
She might trade it for a pool though
Good job on laying pipe Motor Mike. Melissa looks like she has enough power in her legs to be your next tractor! 😃 Dairy Queen. PEANUT BUSTER PARFAIT!!!
Hey Mike,
Chris in Lake Stevens, WA
I would say, (at least from my perspective) you have the perfect life... Great kids, pets, toys, an awesome piece of property, nearly catastrophy-proof job and a beautiful wife that is your best friend and loves to get dirty like you.
Great video as usual. Did I hear the BX stutter a couple of times, like it was fuel starved around minute 17:40?
Congrats on video #800! Nothing beats the Morgan's with Morning Coffee.
Nice work again Mike And Melissa Thanks For Your Help!!👍👊
Love the dirt moving videos. Nice job. Melissa "here's the installation kit..." lol. You truly are a blessed man Mike Morgan.
So glad y’all cut off the excess from the zip tie! It drives me crazy that ppl won’t do that. Makes it look sloppy. 🤪
I know opinions are like pie holes but I thought it was funny at the end back dragging the FEL with a box blade attached. Lol. Good vid!
It’s nice Melissa lets you use her tractor 🤣🤣

Johj

Mike, what did Melissa's parents do for a living that she learned to work so well? She didn't learn to work that way reading a book.
Mike, the work at your Mum’s is looking really good. It will of course, look like a pro-landscaper had been brought in (and one had been: you).
All the camera setups help us get into the job, so thanks for all the behind-the-scenes work you don on your videos. It sets them apart from the rest I see.
From Central Texas, Have A Day y’all!!!
I think the guy who made the woodshed sign should make another that says IMPLEMENT SHED. 🚜
Wish we still had a Dairy Queen here we had 4 growing up all closed in the 70 favorites was the strawberry short cake teri burgers and pineapple shake Aloha and stay safe 🧁🍍
Now if that wasn't the prettiest pipe hold down weight I ever have seen. Good job both of you.
AMEN

Melissa is a Superstar 🌟 🏆
Carmine,
We love the entire family but Melissa is our favorite, can we say that???
wait now a minute Mike, you cant just flick open a knife like that and not tell us about it!!
If my girlfriend and I were out there, I wouldn't get a chance to get on the tractor
BX23S coming Tuesday :)
Working side-by-side with your wife/gf/s.o. is such a blessing. Working with such a beautiful woman is just a bonus.
Great job sir. One less mud hole for you and mom. ❤
When you were talking about getting another twenty two to swing water down toward that lower pipe....I would have lost the bet! I for sure thought you were going to say...well, I think I will just get another section of pipe and will run it all the way down across the driveway just to make it perfect!!
It looks like you'll need a 45 elbow for that turn!
Mike, was the FEL in float when you were back dragging with it?
Have a productive day.
It’s nice to have your wife come along to help out, makes the job easier. Good job on the pipe and such a great compact tractor.
Another great vid! Thanks! Does your Mum watch your video's. If she does, I know she'd be very proud.
Is it just me or did others find it funny that the excess zip ties was cut off? I myself wouldn't have wasted the time even though it was 30 seconds to cut off because it was being buried. Yes I know I'm crazy.
I thought the same thing, but it is his channel.
I'm like Mike. Probably worse! If I would've buried them ties attached, I probably would've dug it up a week later to cut them.
You make it look so easy...Nice job M&M!
Enjoy your DQ visit!
Let Melissa run the loader. That would've been a good learning experience for her.
Two barred owls watching Outdoors with the Morgans!
Mike your dirt work always look nice. Now head out to DQ.
Looking good. I think mum will be pleased. Also, thank you for cutting the tabs off of the zip ties. Buried or not, that would have drove me crazy. Stay well, stay safe and yall HAVE A DAY 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

I missed you Pa Pa Mike! You're my dude always working. Sister Melissa is a blessing to Pa Pa Mike. Good Week ahead. God bless you're family!🇺🇸
I know you have alot to do and I am a pain to remind you but that pond dam fix is not going away by itself!!!!
USA like's dam fails maybe they want a spot light the Dam Fails post kinding i think Mike works hard and tries to keep everyone happy.

Mike you have the KL! Get off of Melissa's BX! 🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🚜😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣
It’s time to take Melissa to Dairy Queen Mike! She earned it!
I believe she has also earned a pool!
I started to laugh to myself for literally about a second and a half when you were cutting the zip ties. Then two things entered my head.

Mike you need to use your box blade! It’s perfect for this little leveling job 😀
Great Pose Melissa. Sitting on the pipe.
Such a nice thing to see. A dutiful son, looking out for his mom. Bless you Mike.
Hi they don't let houndsmen run bears now in Massachusetts during off season or in season.And that is contributing to the bears overpopulation and coming into town.Just a matter of time before something gets mauled.
I remember when zip ties were invented. In the future, you will be able to build entire houses out of them.
I just watched Mike connect plastic pipes together with couplers & zip ties... and I liked it! What’s wrong with me! 🤷♂️ 😆
nothing
I hate snakes too! Problem is that I live on the Gulfcoast.... TONS OF SNAKES!

Thanks again for a wonderful video. As I sit here waiting for my broken arm to heal, I wish I was out doing what you're doing
FYI I have my notification bell selected but recently I’m not getting notified when you have a new video. Not sure if you can do anything about it or is it just something youtube does.
Looks great! One contiguous lawn...no more ugly gulch dividing it in two. Adds to the aesthetic appeal $$$$
Mike? u Better make Melissa a pool? Real soon Buddy!!! Happy wife? , Happy Life.... Do it Mike... Blessed Be Morgans… Brian - Nor Cal

One thing you guys have easier access is to rock and gravel I’m in N Florida where it’s brought by rail and I’m sure more costly. Like you content.
Do you think a BX23S would handle a 635lb 5-foot 3-point hitch rototiller?
Good job Mike and Melissa watching on 6/07/21 from Florida
I see video #800. That's amazing!!
Don't ever cut zip ties at the head if there is pressure on the head. Leave 1/2 inch for eye break. Just saying hope it might help. Love the videos, by the way!!!
Having watched a lot of your videos , the bx23 is not the rk 25 . Sorry !!
Snakes, although they freak us out, are an indicator species and critical to our ecosystems. Like frogs and turtles.
Watching this a day late, guys.....great job as always!👏👏👏
Nice work! It will take some time to get use to having the box blade and using that to grade instead of the bucket....
Mike, your videos are looking very professional. Very nice job on the drain tile. Having the right equipment and knowledge and help makes for a great job. Have a day!
It’s a shame you don’t like snakes; if you didn’t have snakes you would have a lot more rats and mice!
Did u know that the front bucket is made to back drag with the back of the bucket so u can see every thing like that? I didn’t learn that until I was 50 years old. Make a lot of sense after u do it a few time. It’s beefed up and strait just for it
You could cut a wedge out of that tail pipe and bend it to the angle desired. Drill some holes and zip tie it together. Save some bucks.
I have to ask the question Motor Mike. Why did you not just run the pipe straight to the right down side of the drive? Ready for straightening out!🧐
The pump on your tractor sounds quite loud. Is that normal Mike ???
I noticed that someone left a nose buster on the ground. The rake with the tines pointing upwards, I can't count all the times I got in trouble for leaving a rake in that position.
Young bears born last spring who have left the care of their mothers are venturing out on their own . We have them walking around in the subdivisions here in the Daytona Beach area. Hardly a night goes by that someone does not catch one on a security camera.
Bears, that time of year. Momma is making the young males go find their new territory.
that looks like a toy tractor compared to the other ones you have driven on this channel over the years ... and I agree with all of the other comments on here ... you two are truly blessed
You had the pipe I'd of not worried the elbows and just shot it straight across road in that other hollow by that pile of gravel.
Is it me, or does it seem like the BX struggles a little to dig out of the pile a full bucket. I seem to remember the RK fill a bucket almost effortlessly??
Wow! I can't believe that I've watched 800 videos from you already.
Thought it was funny how you didn't edit out the yawning. Nice teamwork !
Your new BX seems to have a lot more hydraulic power to lift and move than my John Deere 2210 does. How does it compare to the small RK tractor?
Congrats on #800 there. Thanks again for the great content. Have a wonderful day.
melissa did i see you put the rake with the prongs facing up very dangerous in long grass
Mike why not just buy two of the 22 degree angle pieces and use that extra piece of straight pipe to connect the pipe to the one that goes under the driveway then there no ditch at all
So if I am to understand correctly for your area you only have 3 venomous snakes so all 3 are shy so y'all should be fine
Just a word of caution for Melissa at the 9:51 mark she drops the rake to the ground with the tines pointing up that is a good way to lose that nice smile of hers.
Mike , do you still have the other attachments you had for the RK tractors ?
IE. Firewood bucket , post hole digger,
I am interested in the answer to these questions too.
9:47 Into the video and your wife made a error which a lot of people make is she dropped the iron rake with the teeth upwards! 12:10 you can see it! lol
I wish you could talk your mum in getting with u for a sit down around a fire and coffee on video
In Maine we've been having a lot of black bears come out in the last week.
Seems like the MX would have been a better choice for backfilling.
I sure wish my wife would help my projects.
I am with you all the way on the snakes, Melissa! Ugh...hate them
Good morning Morgan's! You truly are a lucky man. Melissa enjoys working with you, and knows what she's doing as well as contemplating what your going to do next, and she's ready with whatever you need next! She really does deserve the pool, as well as a trip to Dairy Queen!👍
Rob,
Agree with everything except the Pool!
I don't see why your wasting the stone on the pipe other than maybe at the ends.
What an amazing little tractor !
that little tractor will do a lot of work but thhe whinning it does is annoying
What did we do before drywall screws and wire ties.??
Melissa...I don't like spiders and snakes!
Bet your Mom appreciates your help!
