  • New calves are popping up all over the farm! Hilarie and I spend the day watching over the new calves & their Moms while loading hay from the fields and from our neighbor's wagon into the barn.

    "It's a wonderful life". I actually thanked God while watching this video for His Creation. It is truly amazing that the mom cows have such mothering instincts when, unfortunately, some humans do not - freewill and all that. Anyway, thank you for sharing. Was raised on a farm so know how tired you truly are at the end of the day. May God Bless.

    This was terrific, Pete -- and the dad jokes are great!
    My grandfather was a minister from Upstate New York and he loved to tell corny jokes! We kids would roll our eyes, of course, as your kids do, but they are among my fondest memories.
    Here's his favorite: A man bought a horse from a preacher. The preacher instructed him that the horse responded to unusual commands: "Praise the lord" to go forward, "Bless you" to go left, "Peace be with you" to go right, and "Amen!" to stop. So the man gets on the horse, says "Praise the lord," and they go galloping off. He soon realizes that he has forgotten the commands for left and right and they are heading straight for a cliff! He wracks his brain but cannot remember the command to stop. As they get closer and closer to the cliff, he suddenly remembers and shouts "Amen!" and the horse stops right at the edge. The man wipes his brow and says, "Whew, that was a close one! Praise the lord!" 😅

      My Dads name was John. He told awful "jokes" . We called them Johnorisms as we didn't think they were really jokes. They were probably bad Dad jokes.... I think he liked our eye rolls and moans. :-)

    I love this channel. Farm life and no bs. Beautiful. Best pure good content on here. This guy and wife are amazing. Father's Day is sad day for me. I'm estranged from my 2 grown son are in their mid 20s. No contact. I have got my life together for over 10 years now , unfortunately people let the past run their life. I'm judged from my past mistakes still to this day 11 years later. I'm a father but not in my son's lifes at all. I'm try , I reach out. Sad when people refuse to get over the past.
