Wentzel, it seems it's always nicer to sit down with a pipe and a cup of coffee, if you have someone to share it with. Thanks for sharing! Always the more enjoyable! Have a wonderful (and relaxing) weekend!
Your philosophy and ways remind me of my pa paw I used to work the garden with him when I was a kid we used to grow tobacco and sorghum for molasses making in the fall anyway been enjoying your videos sir appreciate you!
Hi Al! I enjoyed your video today while smoking some Early Morning tobacco in my Falcon pipe. Your videos are so relaxing and your content is interesting to this California born pipe smoker! I enjoy your tractor talk, so thanks for the company! God bless you my friend :)
Anyone from the south knows that’s the key to a true run of white lightning 😂 never thought of using one as a tamper. Used to love going to the Dunlap parades to watch all of the old tractors. Enjoy your evening pipe sir and have a blessed day!
Great story Mr Wentzel. I bet I’ve rode a million miles on an ole IH 140 farmall and a massy. Back in the day my papaw had one of the ole mowin machines that had the triangle blades. I used to throw the old blades at a tree right beside the tractor barn. The tillers are the way to go nowadays. o Lordy I walked a huge field last year huntin arrowheads me and my dog. I got tired so we quit walkin and I headed up to the pool room for few ice cold ale8’s and the fellow that turned the ground was up there which I knew he would be. He ask if I found any I said yea found 3 but they was fairly chewed up . Then he said well I tilled it two times. I looked down and said now you tell me lol. Lord bless ya Mr Wentzel thanks for your stories buddy..
I learned to drive with a Farmall Super M. My daddy used that to plow his garden, bush hog the hunting property, haul out trees he felled, then ne made a hydraulic wood splitter out of an old corn planter, then we would haul the wood in a wagon made from a willys jeep front end. Real workhorse. My daddybsold it about a decade ago when he got a kioti, and he was getting too old to cut split and stack 9 cord of wood a year and swapped over to propane for heat.
Good morning buddy, great chat while i have my morning coffee with a bowl of burley morning pipe. Im going to tell you a bit about a conversation i had with my late father i had in his final years. He said that when he goes not to be sad as he's had such a brilliant life. He was a farmer as was his father and grandfathers before that, and he said he's seen agriculture change throughout his life that will probably never be witnessed again. When he was a boy they only had horses to do all the work and cows were milked by hand then as time moved on they got their first tractor now i cant remember if he said they got a little grey fergy or a David brown cropmaster first either way they had both and the cropmaster is still at the farm this day but unfortunately left out in a field and neglected by my so called brother who i haven't spoken to for many years but thats another story i dont want to get into here as i was diddled out of thousands after my parents passed. Anyhow back to my father, he wouldn't let my grandfather sell the horses as they had given so much to the farm and they lived out the rest of their lives on the farm. As the hear went buy farming was advancing so quickly they then had a milking machine installed and the herd indreased, then with haytime what would takes weeks to complete would be done in days towards his final years. He said from 1923 throughout his lifetime agriculture would never advance as it did probably never again and he was thankful to have witnessed such progression of his way of life, even sheering hundreds of sheep with hand sheers which would take so much work was then made easier with electric sheers. He was a farmer through and through and i was proud to call him my father.

Good Morning 😊 Lovely Tobacco You Having 😋 Relaxation and Coffees ☕ Good Combination 👏🏼Living on The Farm , Tractors 🚜 are Part of Us 😂 We Have an Old Messey Furgerson 🚜 Appreciate You Sharing and Greetings From South Africa 🇿🇦
wentzel, i like you! good story teller. i am looking forward to the next couple years to find out where i land, as i am looking at moving inland and buy a little piece of land and homestead a little. i was looking a Johnson City, but it looks to have gone through some double the price increase over the last couple years. so i am back to moving to the hills of Virginia or go into W. Virginia and see what a dollar can get me there. thanks for the talk, i had to sub because i enjoyed your conversation. thanks. my channel is just me smoking pipes, learning video editing and ride motorcycles. anyways, see you on the next one.
@@Wentz789 No way around it! I do have this tamper/cleaner tool but I don't need to tamp any more than what I tap with my finger. And for cleaning my go-to things are safety pins, sheetrock screws, and bare solid copper wire. And the air nozzle. And I'll take the propane torch flame to it now and then to help burn off deposits. I pull the stem and flick the water from the bowl section before putting it up. I've been at it a loooong time! Cheers my friend!
Mr. Wentzel .. can I pick ur brain ? What do I reckon is wrong with mac baren tobaccos? Every one of em burns my mouth to no end and feels like it costs my mouth with oil or something ? I dry em out almost to a crisp but it's still the same . What do u reckon it could be ?
Thanks for sharing! This Kentucky boy could listen to you all day long, with a pipe and a cup of course.

If you have ever watched Moonshiners, you would know what your tamper is.
Do y’all have to deal with Kudzu vine?
@@Stillypapabear Kudzu, yes the horse eats it. I guess the goats do to

I don’t have good eyes anymore but if I was a betting man I would say your tamper had something to do with a raccoon.
