    Hey. Cole, when all is fixed and done and when the trenches are fill back up just make sure to lay a run of yellow caution tapes in the trench right over the line and at about 2 feet below the top side. Later if you ever have to dig again for these lines upon starting to dig up though will find the tape and it with tell you your over the pipe and the heading direction of the line will also be shown by the tape.

    I had to laugh while you were cutting rows & with the mower. In the video it looks like you're movin' along pretty good! My husband used to scold me for mowing too fast. He said I wasn't REALLY cutting the grass... I was just scaring it!!
    Thanks for taking me back in time for a couple minutes. ❤

    That crop duster reminded me…….hope you dont mind. While still in high school, I would “flag” for one of those pilots. Before GPS, pilots had to have flags carried on two ends of a field they were working. This pilot was well known over the entire country, offered to teach me to fly FREE! Didn’t take him up, but I did learn to fly later on, would own my own plane, and helicopter. One of my favorite quotes came from that pilot, he had a brass plate on his plane dash. That plaque,”there are old pilots, and there are bold pilots, there are no old, bold pilots”! I have never forgotten that brilliant theory!
    Had to laugh when you said that forklift driver must be “forklift qualified”! Stay safe!

    Thanks for another great video Cole.
    It was interesting and enjoyable.
    Glad you got the water line figured out and a new water line put in. Document now where those lines our for future use.
    Fill in your hole and that project is done.
    Your first cutting of hay is great. What a nice field of alfalfa. Your placement of the camera for cutting the hay is super impressive Cole. Nice job on the camera placement. Appreciated.
    Nice work getting equipment power washed. Looks good after cleaning.
    The digger you cleaned and gassed for your brother and hauled it. Now that is service Cole.
    Good family teamwork.
    Didn’t see Sonny today. ???
    Your hay cutting will produce some really nice round bales. Yeah!!!!!!!
    Got your corn contract hauled, that is good and job done.
    About it I guess. Thanks for everything Cole. You both take care and be safe.

    The Toro's "my ride" suspension is supposed to be the best! I heard it was better than the high dollar pro models, but the mowers that are set up like the grasshopper and Toro/Exmark pro stuff for groundskeepers (baseball, football, golf courses) but they're big money. Glad you got your water fixed! I know from working around it that the leak can show up far away from the problem. The water car run up the outside of the line and threw a vein of sand (etc) and bubble up yards away!

    When I do something like bury lines or pipes I always make a map/layout with landmarks and distances, laminate it and glue it next to the shutoff/disconnect. Because in 5 years you WILL forget it all. I made the mistake of labeling the breakers when we pulled in new wires and a new service. I did it on a large piece of cardboard that my wife later used to start a fire in the burn pit.
