com:Pete, I really enjoy your You-tube postings.

Many years ago my father raised angus cattle as a hobby farm. We only had about 25 acres of irrigated pasture in northern California. I did a lot of the feeding, kept the water troughs full and Irrigated the pastures. We didn’t have much money to invest and our tractor was a “Doodlebug” made from a 31 Ford AA truck. We mowed with a sickle bar mower that was originally horse drawn. Our rake was a horse drawn dump rake. I see how you enjoy your cattle grazing. I felt the same way. Happy cattle and frolicking calves are enjoyable to watch and listen to. Due to my mothers health we were forced to sell the livestock and the farm. It was a sad day when the cattle were sold, The empty pastures and barn seemed so sad and forlorn. I enjoy your tractor restoring video also. I spent mot of my life selling auto parts for a NAPA store. The filters you use as well as things like hi-tac and lubriplate take me back to those days. One of my jobs was going to the local farms and orchards to take inventory of the tractors so we could be sure to have filters, belts and whatever they needed on hand. Thanks a bunch. I enjoy your attitude most of all.
