And neither will they. You can teach them SO much by doing. They are this world's most precious asset, teach them well!! Our whole future is in their hearts and minds. (NO pressure) I think you are doing pretty well. Blessings on all of you..

    “So I can hear, Uncle Nick please stop” 😂 Farm kids have the life!! Our son had his 1st 4-wheeler when he was 3. Oh how I miss our little barn full of animals in the PA mountains. My husband pulled us on a sled through a trail in the woods. We survived too! 😂

  • @The777017
    @The777017 Рік тому +8

    I think the last year I had with my grandfather was the funnest. Although we didn't know that he was dying from pancreatic cancer we still strive to have a great time with them. I'll never forget sledding up on our farm here in North Idaho but instead of using normal sleds we use canoes and kayaks the funnest time we ever had. Unfortunately my 75-year-old grandmother ended up getting a black eye from when the dog jumped over her but you know that's just part of it. I just want to say thank you so much for playing out videos that my family and I enjoy watching. I know I've said this on a couple of your videos before but it feels so good to come on to this channel after having a horrible day and hearing kids laugh and watching my kids laugh because it looks like you guys are having a great time. there been times that I've watched your content go out and it's brought back memories. I urge you guys to keep doing what you're doing cuz your content is actually be cleanest I've seen for a long long time my family and I watch you guys constantly and we enjoy it the biggest reason why is I can put it on for a youth group or a small group and not be embarrassed by the things that you guys are talking about. It is very obvious that the Lord is in the center of everything that you guys do and that is exactly why we enjoy watching you guys I just want to say thank you from the Wagner family

    • @The777017

      Also I just feel like you guys should know that we actually did use one of your videos actually two of them the one where you guys got completely healed out last harvest season and then also the other season where you guys got held out and your brother just said that God's in control. We actually use that as a center of one of our small group discussions. We just want you guys to know that you guys reached more than 25 people at our last small group meeting because of one of your videos so yeah I just want to say thank you.

  • @clydeacor1911
    @clydeacor1911 Рік тому +1

    It's awesome to see that the old car hood tradition is living on. My dad always had a 1940's to 1950's car or pickup hood to pull us kid's behind the old John Deere 4020 in the deep snow in the fields, it worked awesome because the hood was tall in the front so we didn't have a lot of snow coming over the front. Since those are liquid cooled engines it'd probably be really easy to put some kind of after market heater box in that side by side. It's great that you take the time to spend with the kid's giving them memories that will really mean something to them down the road and they'll always have these videos to look back on.

    My friend and I call those wire connectors create a shorts. You are right, they are not very weather tight. Put some RTV gasket maker or silicone on the ends. It may not be completely weather tight, but it should help keep the water out a best it can. Thanks for all you do, God Bless.

    • @bradh7472

      Exactly. You usually use these on your first few plowing jobs, then once its frozen you don't need them anymore because the plow will skid across the frozen snow.

    A trick for plowing snow on a gravel driveway and minimizing the amount of gravel you pull up. Take a piece of 1 1/2" or 2" PVC pipe the length of your blade's cutting edge. Cut a slot straight down one side of the pipe. Shove the split in the pipe over the cutting edge on the snow blade. This will minimize the amount of gravel you pull up, but still let you plow your driveway pretty clean. I've been doing this for several years now.

    Little advice for the utv blade. Don't use the stops they don't work work very well and just leave grooves. Just get a piece of rubber belting and bolt on between the cutting edge and plow hanging out about an inch. Much more forgiving and can push faster without the blade wanting to jump. Thanks for content. God Bless.
