    When I was 12 I learned to drive dump trucks and flatbeds during hay season. The next year I was mowing fields and hay. Then on and on. The experience as a kid was amazing and helped shape the skills I have today. My uncle took the time to teach us kids the value of hard work and dedication. Thanks for sharing, Jeramy.

    First equipment I operated was a Massey Ferguson 35. I was 5 years old and they had me driving the tractor while the rest of the family bucked hay bales on the to the wagon. I thought I was the king of the world. Oddly enough, we still have that tractor and my nephew is in the process of restoring it.

    The only machine I've ever run was the one I bought 4 years ago and it's a Kubota KX040-4. Takes a little time to learn but I thoroughly enjoy it. I've learned a lot by watching your channel and appreciate you. Thanks brother.

    First equipment I ran was a Ford 5000 pulling a 12’ disk at 14yo. Ran an International TD8 dozier cutting roads for a transmission line crew for a few years. Now I’m happy on my Farmall 140 and U35 mini ex. Learning a lot while watching you. Keeping an eye on the webpage for the pin protector. Already lost a couple clips. Enjoyed the video.

    The ditches cleaned up well.....let the rains come. My Dad was a logger here in Northern California. The first equipment I ran was his D-8 when I was 9 years old. I would go out on the logging jobs with him when I was very young. Ride on the dozer with him while he was skidding logs and sometimes bring a fishing pole if there was a creek nearby. When I got big enough, he had me setting chockers (not a fun job). When I got out of the military, he asked if I wanted to go into the logging business with him. I declined, I wanted a job where I still made money when it was raining. I remember well when he was not working during the winter, plus I had an idea that the logging business didn't have a good future in my lifetime. I still liked running equipment.

      @craigvanhousen559 That is a very neat story. Yes, setting chokers is very hard work, I have set many through the years. Thank you for sharing, and have a wonderful evening ❤️

    Long ago my dad had a little Oliver cat that he would let me run. I don’t remember the model of it but what sticks in my head is the bread bag that was pulled over the magneto to keep it dry when sitting. Plus, it’s crazy how tough the root system is on a Ponderosa Pine. Beautiful job as always. 👍🏻

    You mentioned a Pin Defender in a video I watched today when you were building a road. I occasionally loose the lytch pin on my 2 foot bucket, but on my one foot bucket, it is almost guaranteed every time I use it. Is this device made to keep that from happening? Mine is a 040-4.
