      I just enjoy so much music Cole plays during the bailing when he takes drone video of Brian bailing & the bails dropping off the bail rail- 1 to each side. Also when they cutting hay, or working ground in that crazy shaped field. My son says it is an autistic guitar being played during the bailing music.

    Hi Cole, is the rain ever going to stop? Good to see you are getting all the small jobs out of the way before you get busy and you seem to like working with fences / gates. The mowing, racking and baling of the grass in the drains is not as easy as it looks but at least they are bales you won't have to buy. Brian picked a great song of the day by Nick Cave. I haven't seen Jeff in the videos for a while, I hope he is doing ok. Thanks for sharing. Chris from Australia 🇦🇺.

    Just a heads up, Smithfield is dropping 40 pork producers and a plant. Good news for uncle Jeff. Buy his hogs at market, haul with beef to Sturgis for processing. Develop a beef, pork and variety pack of ground meats. Sell boxes pre ordered and give refund or OWL ships the backorder and you earn the marketing fee. Storla will be a great sales and distribution point with refrigeration. One day you will need to buy locally to fill the growth. Add How Farms Works, Millenial Farmer, Cole the C star for 10% of the retail for promoting the channel and direct beef pork sales. Jerkey asap. Mike OWL is your experienced consultant for start up.

    If the bees just moved in you can try hanging a "Hot Shot" bug thing by the entrance it may make them move on it worked for me in a couple days. If they have comb in there though you need to get it out or it'll attract critters and the next swarm that goes by to move in.

    I have a goldenrod wire stretcher. They do not have a handle. Once with the wire tight I reached back for one more squeeze, leaned on it too much, it clicked loose & almost took off my thumb. I welded a 1/2 galv pipe (all I had) to the end for my left hand & sore thumb.
    That was about 35 years ago & it is still in the golf cart tool box, ready to work. I like it now!

    Lots of maintenance items going on today. Getting the mower ready with new blades. Yeah.
    That drive thru gate went good for you Cole. That will be nice to have in that location. Good gate to have. Nice work Cole.
    Back to ditch raking and baling again. Not the easiest but productive in terms of the bales you get. Good going guys.
    Like that older tractor your dad picked up. Now the AC works. Yeah. Nice old unit yet and handy to get around in. Good.
    About it I guess. Thanks for everything Sonne’s. Take care and be safe.

    BRAIN - Just saw the recording of Red Right Hand, live in Copenhagen, immediately after Cole said to wait until the end of the video - LOL! Never heard the song before. It was awesome! It was a little slower than the 2011 remaster but it's still a very cool song and performance. This was one of your better song-of-the-day selections. Thanks

    Brian, song of the day, “ Rich Man North of Richmond “ oh great song. Cole, the corn crop doesn’t look like the answer to our prayers we were looking for. But if we’ll turn to the Lord and from our wicked ways, HE WILL heal our land. I think that is in there somewhere. Correct me if I’m wrong.

    Those drive through gates for quads are an interesting concept. We are accustomed to “Texas Gates” for fields that have oil wells since oil company picks up the costs as well as does maintenance to clean out dirt that builds up as the tankers go in and out of the fields on the lease roads.

    Glad to see you finally getting experience with ditch hay. Believe it or not, I started out at age 3 driving the tractor in the ditch for the loose hay. Okay, it was a Model A John Deere with a hand clutch. Dad set me up and of course, Mom had a fit but, interestingly, I had the confidence to know I could do it. You are a year or two late.

    My late ex-wife was reading a book called Paradise Lost by Milton... I was listening to a mix tape (remember those?) that a former Navy buddy sent me from Australia. It had the Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds on it. My wife heard it and freaked out! "The MAN with the Red Right Hand is a reference to GOD and his sure judgement!" I told her at first I thought it was a western kind of thing, but the band was from Australia. We both enjoyed the song and the music. The lyrics almost seem to speak of "him" as the devil. The lyrics were written by Nick and the band.
