Enjoying Farm life

For those of you that don't get to enjoy farm life , heres a little vid of a day headed to the stock yard with some yearlings. Notice that the little bull on the end figured out my batteries died in my stinger. He wanted to let me know he knew.

I like that Video.
Brings back the past when My Grandmother had the Dairy Farm.
Whole milk, Fresh Eggs, Homemade Butter, Smoke meat, Farm raised Vegetables, which some say all that is not good for you.
Then why most of our elders lived into their 80s & 90s PLUS

I'll agree. My best childhood memory is my dads mom and me in her kitchen. It was a old log cabin from way back. Had old door in the kitchen that she would open. I was sitting in the door way with my feet hanging out onto a old log step and her sitting behind me churning butter. That was etched into my long term memory when I was about 4 or 5 yrs old. I can't remember what she looked like but I can vividly remember that day.

That just reminds me that we need to round some up and haul them in. Two years ago, I wasn't as quick as you at getting out of the way and I got "Tippy Hoofed". That hurt for a few days.

That fence that I jumped over is the one my dad jumped into the lot and the time he hit the ground the old crazy cow nailed him to the fence. Broke his hip. If it had'nt been for a friend of his that was with him the crazy hefer would have killed him.

You need to add a Braunvieh bull to that herd, and it just so happen that I have one for sale!!!

My dad's the cattle farmer. I'm just the innocent bystander, I gave up on cattle a long time ago. Since the cow jumped on him and broke his hip , he's about ready to give it up. Wild hogs coming in from a joining hunting plantation have pretty much destroyed the main hay field. Seems they multiply quicker than you can kill'em then the club just keeps bringing in more. Its against the law for them to do that but seems theres no way to stop them. The hay field is on 150 acres that me and him own together. As soon as he says he's done, i'm gonna turn it into a Mud Boggin motor park with a MXGP style motorcross track- think old school twin shock type track with a little enduro cross thrown in . A lot less over head than keeping up with cattle. And on the main farm which is close to 300 acres I'll probably keep a few cows and charge some horse people to come in and herd them from field to field. Believe it or not I've got a friend thats still into horses that goes to other places to do that for 30 bucks a head. Says theres always a good crowd ready to ride. The mud boggin is pretty much build a big hole fill it with water and " They will Come " ......

Sounds like a much better idea!!!

Mud boggin and a GPMX track sounds like much more fun than cattle farming!

The guitar playing in your video has to be Tommy Emmanuel. I've never heard that particular song but it has his style all over it. He's my favorite player and one heck of a nice guy. I've met him a few times at the Fur Peace Ranch where he gives 3 day teaching clinics and concerts at night.

He's actually played one of my guitars. (Goodall Grand Concert) I never knew my guitar could make such wonderful music. In my mind the man is simply the best in the world on acoustic guitar.

Not sure who it is ? it was on the Flip video movie editing music dub options.

My grandparents owned a dairy farm, too. With chickens, pigs, steers/calves (for meat), an apple orchard, and a mean old dog named Sport. My favorite memory is sneaking up into the corn crib and playing in a tank of shelled corn. I bet we could have gotten killed in there. Someone (a higher power) was watching over us kids, that's for sure.
