houses and there's two big ones in the back here and once we started farming this we weren't gonna we weren't gonna develop this we just we didn't want anybody else to so we we put it in a hay because you can see how it pitchers down we've got Blueprints and and something on this road too this was 90 grand to put this road in thick thick thick Stone gravel all the way off uh off that road up there Church Road so but we don't know what we're just gonna keep hanging on to it and keep farming it and man them clouds are popping now we just actually had a rain shower trying to move South of us thank the Lord at State South we're gonna rake this up this is Getting Thinner but yeah and then a buddy of ours ended up owning by that oak tree uh he actually just died Eddie God Rest his soul we took that fence throw out and we gained almost 10 acres so this is now almost a 30 acre patch of hay and uh yeah yeah we used to come back here few years back and hang out at night and nobody bother you would be a nice spot for a house look at this that Woods the woods isn't ours that's pretty much the property line but let's get to ranking [Music] [Music] [Music] foreign [Music] back to the ranch [Music] [Music] back at the farm cows are locked in to get milked I gotta scrape the bunks and feed them then I gotta head home remember I said my daughter turned eight years old we're gonna throw our

the rubber she's knee-high in rubber thank you [Music] okay feeders running [Music] thank you [Music] we'll have to do what I've got in here see how slickity clean that is you do that because you don't want them standing in a bunch of mushy crap see the wind kind of carries that over a lot of times I'll just I'll run it on this side and it'll just blow yeah she's getting cleaned right up yeah you don't want him standing at a bunch of crap nobody wants a sanding crap that'd be like us standing in laying around in soiled laundry yeah this looks pretty good coming across we'll go and pull a couple of these out while we're feeding hey Catherine they got you locked in here chicky you're good girl that one's for me that one's for the kids oh cheese guys here with Grant man I'll give you a better look at this fence fenced in yard and I put an extra panel here long way so we're on the patio area no one from this road can see us we got my sister over celebrating Chloe's birthday but yeah then you didn't really lose much you can park here a lot of guys are saying family members saying that it looks like I got a prison here and I said yeah you're right it is a prison and I'm the warden so here's the outside of it kind of laid right in there straight as an arrow I put a big old pudding Stone big boulder on the outside before they put the fence up come on bud that's another reason why I put this up I want to be able to crail the kids you know crazy traffic and I got little babies tuck them in here and it'll be nice and safe side of my house now I planted these Pines but they just didn't grow quick enough and it also helps you hear these cars right now kind of loud can't see them but it actually does help with the sound of of uh come on boy it does help with the sound especially when you're in the house it's not as loud I want to show you the back side of this fence just how straight he laid it in here these are four ten foot poles you put them four foot in the ground I raked out all the all the drill holes because he set them in pea Stone but yeah he kind of wants a little lamb back here more in the front it's a lot straighter but I'm pretty happy with it [Applause] [Music] noisy and nobody knows this operation better than hope so listen up she can tell you things I don't know pressure everybody [Music] [Applause] thank you [Music] [Music] and here's the back side I just got a mole not terribly but look how straight he made the that's a long you know long long stretch but it's nice smells like wood right now you got to go pee is that what you're doing hey you're a good boy all right guys that's it for the video we got all that hay off Mark that we bailing probably still for a couple more hours that was 60 Acres today and it's going to take
