Been keeping pretty busy but managed to get a bit of harvest video edited and uploaded.
Lets see if I can remember how to post a link and a picture.

Love that picture and great video Rusty! Been missing the pictures and updates from around your farm lately.
 
Is the road pretty narrow where you are filming from the truck cab? Looks like you are driving right in the middle which makes it look quite narrow. So you travel 10 miles between some of the pieces of land you farm? I guess that's not so far in these "modern" times.
 
good evening rusty, great video, it started snowing here this morning around 9:00 am and has snowed off and on all day :evil: going down to -2c tonight, hopefully this isn't headed your way. forecast is for more cold and snow it's only 2 months only!

That is actually the "super grid" and quite wide. The Gopro setting distorts the image a little and might make things look narrower than they are. There is a 70 km speed limit sign on that road but trust me, you can easily go a whole lot faster than that on it. Yes, the farms are far apart. Not my choice but that is the way it worked out. The land came to me and I wasn't going to turn it away.
 
I enjoy your videos. In a way , it is sad the way the west depopulated, and old homesteads are just as you describe marked by bits of old concrete, or lilac bushes. But that is the reality of farming, just doesn?t require as many farmers as it did 100 years ago.
 
Glad to see you back. I missed the videos and hearing you explain what you are doing. Looking forward to more of the same. Keith
 
I remember as a kid going to old homesteads and getting lilac and berry bushes for our farm. Even tore down a few barns for lumber. 40 ft 12" beams without a knot in them, some even larger in diameter.
 
I've been missing your posts. Glad to see you back in action. Hope the breakdown was not too bad. Keep us up to date....always interesting.
