    Sir, it’s so encouraging to hear of your faith in God and yes the Bible shows us our need for a Saviour in Jesus Christ our Lord!
    That’s been my strength for almost 60 years. Blessings to you and your family for today and the future 🙏🙏

    I just watched this one video, so I don't know what state you are in but on my property here in Maine I too have grape vines to contend with. It is amazing how strong they are. I try to, when I find a vine cut it off and ground level and then pull it with the tractor out of the canopy. Some vines are a hundred feet long or more. Sorry to hear of your wife's sickness Cancer sucks as they say. I hope things take a turn for the better soon. Love the Detroit but be sure to wear lots of hearing protection. I ran a truck for 2 years with a 671 in it and that was in 87 and 88. I am now 61 and I attribute most of my hearing loss to that engine.

    My name is John , I sent you the comment about not working alone. I absolutely loved logging , I love the smell of the woods , the landing , sawdust, just everything. In 1979 we purchased a 740 John Deere , 2 wenches on it , I think I fell in love with that machine . Loved running it ,one skid I brought out 21 ton of pulp plus logs .Hard work but enjoyable.So sorry for your wife, as a Bible student , I have learned that Gods Kingdom will soon elimate sickness,death, and sorrow. Revelation 21:3,4 is so encouraging. If you get a chance give it a read.
