    Evan, you will have better hay if you place your wrapped bales standing on an end and not resting on their side. There is more plastic on the ends so standing the bales on an end offers better protection months from now.

    Evan, that post driver is a thing of beauty. It not only speeds up the process, but the wear and tear it takes off you is priceless. Remembering how much work it was building fence with my Dad it is simply amazing.
    Wise choice to let Mrs. Skunk take her time to mosey on down the road as she saw fit. I'm happy you did her and her little ones no harm. Folks tend to see skunks and opossums as pests when in fact, both are very beneficial in their own ways.
    Good luck with the AI. We never used that technology. We always had a bull or borrowed one. Our last was an Angus and other than him liking to walk down that new fence Dad and I just built, he was never a problem. He was, in fact, very docile. A big puppy to be honest.
    Keep up the good work!

    You and Rebeka have really done a remarkable job on your fencing! I'm shocked you still haven't had any rain.Don't know how you's managed to do that lol Today's our first day of no rain in a week here in Northern Michigan and its supposed to start back up tomorrow. I'm with Rebeka on that heat thing but then I'm old lol Only thing worse is heat and humidity. Anyway, great job today!

    JudithB Its hot down here 99 and 109 heat index. I got everything watered early, the decided to put a tarp over the grass on the driveway and cook it!! It will take a few days to kill the grass and weeds, then move the tarp to another spot. I am placing landscape timbers along the driveway replacing the old ones. Today, I decided to drill the holes near the ends and put in 12" rebar to nail the timbers down. I used 3 bits to drill larger holes and got partly done. The largest bit kept hanging up. So decided to hammer the rebar in, well it went down 6"s. So got out the big sledge, and it got too hot for me to be out side!!! Maybe tomorrow!!!!! LOL!!

    Great video! I have run a lot of high tensile fence over the years, started putting in posts by eye, then transit and stakes, then string. We now get our main posts in and run the first line of actual fencing as the "stringline". The wind does not affect is nearly as much as the string, if at all, and the bonus is, you already have your first line done! Hope you guys have a wonderful day and good luck with the pregnancies!

    That post driver was a good purchase! Nice to see it works on the pipes also. If only you could get the time and money back from all that concrete. I bet the clay will hold just as well as concrete. Maybe useful on the corners when ya start pulling wire, but i reckon you know what i mean.

    Rebecca, i worry about your feet, open toed flip flops offer no protection and you do a lot of work that could destroy your feet. And without feet your whole carrere and homestead/farm would come to a very sad end. Its great you work together so well. Evan, / Mr. Producer-Director-Actor- Farmer-Mechanic etc... you owe it to your wife to make sure her feet are protected. I enjoy every one of your vids. thanks for sharing.

    @puirYorick 4 місяці тому +5

    Gloving up is great but remember to protect your eyes too. If you can taste or smell those fumes it means the acid vapour is reaching your face and your eyes are dealing with the exposure too. The effect will accumulate over the work period.
    Good luck with the AI. Interesting choices with the genetics. The calves will be exciting to see.

    Yeah, I know about that down wind taste factor, since working in the US Air Force as a Fuel Specialist for 21 years, I used to inhale a lot of JP-8 jet fuel vapors, which is toxic, and walk around with the taste in my mouth, and after work at home too. Seemed like just part of the job, until I retired and started having health issues, shortly after, and did some research online and found a lot of the health issues I was having are convolutedly linked to JP-8 exposure over a prolonged period of time. Not that the Air Force or Veterans Administration would ever admit that. I'd suggest using some kind of a mask/respirator, Evan, maybe look up inhalation exposure risks on the MSDS, since possibly something acid based inhaled could do respiratory damage, even with short term exposure. Be safe Sir!
