Gone With the Wind

alright here we are back again and posted it laughs I hadn't had much to say and hadn't been doing much hey stuff it's been writing it for the last I think 60 days pretty much yeah it's been out of I don't know what today is anyway I'm Rambo and as you can see today is the Saturday after Thanksgiving that's what today is so anyway sorry I don't want to make that alarming make a mistake here that's not very good let me get anyway this is dropping some bales it may it's a lot of grass but it's at here you know it's at here a long time but we don't matter in the conditions that the hay market in these these are some really good best buying a good belts anyway I mean I think even at a good market you can turn these from horse saying and you know and get some decent money side yeah I mean they're not there's something wrong with him for sure but it is what though we were out its 25th November and 2018 mark that with and I'm beloved I've never I can say we'll see if that keeps on the right track or maybe I could use two hands ever met it's too windy to be outside the wind's blowing like 35 miles an hour what should I do here I'm telling you doc things see I've gotta work ready if you're gonna buy one tractor by the John Deere put the ivt we're gonna buy one tractor develop and get it with the electronic dealer actually I don't even need to hold it and just pull it and go by itself only thing it doesn't do is um sorry you know what starts off slow is it stays depressed even after it shuts the gate so you kinda you got to flick it one more time for the for the light see these lights they turn you up oops sorry it's sorry the light right there you can see it that's that's when the actual hydraulic flow is happening so it's so awesome man I mean you can you can change it you just click it you can change the flow right here in the tractor I mean it's just I'm telling you make your life easier as easy as possible anyway this wasn't a John Deere actually I got some issues but anyway some issues with John Deere's transmission emissions they have and that's super I'm gonna go cleaning this up since I'm done down here this wind is nuts I'll show you well yeah when I start going back the other way I can I can point the camera over there better and man I didn't want to necessarily go all the way down here but and see I mean you just roll you just roll it right there and you know I'm telling you all right the bullet by ones cry once I bought twice and cried twice how about that 6125 em with the power pot and no offense John Deere but though you should even be making those anymore that's well in my tummy I mean the electronic transmissions for the way to go you know if you're an old dude and you know lack electronics you know they don't make these things because they not this way not this days you know aren't any good they make they will improve your life in the hay world or in the farming world you know Lee select everything electronic I mean to me it's about staying out here 20 hours if I have to but I can tell you right now in 50 you had 52 years old I've got to stay down I'm not doing a manual leg you know the harder I make it the less hours that I can work that's just the way that it's just the way it is this is life you're gonna slow down I'm guarantee I'm not as fast as that was when I was you know in my 20s and 30s there or even early forties think about 45 the last time when I started going downhill so I don't know about yeah and then when you started this is dropping nuts yesterday I dropped a hundred and fifty four bells on 20 acres that's how thick this stuff got you know there's good - it's really good but it's also bad let's see these straps down that's another thing you may think my cutters not working and I'll tell you I don't know if any other brand doesn't but New Holland these I get this is black dirt out here I don't have Gophers but when I when it gets wet I get crawdad mounts I don't know it's some other people call them but they're not common products oops I gotta watch what I'm doing here I'm talking and I'm not and attention but oh let me show you this real quick see y'all that the most Windrose rolled over that's what that winds doing and it's uh it's not pleasant dealing with that sorry I'm trying to stay going here I got a lot to do anyway I don't know know how much I know my video quality is going to be a little nuts but even I don't even know what a hood guys talking about you know the road the rolls there was one this morning see how they're rolling up like two little tubes out there if you can see them you can see it it would've took off and rolled halfway all the way up towards that tree up there it was still rolling I actually I ran I chased after it with this baton I caught it and bailed it up before it wouldn't be further but yeah this grass is you know long enough and sorry is that it intertwines with the you know y'all had is an intertwined book with itself and starts making ropes basically it'll make a rope and start rolling across lift but yeah you see I don't know if you can see the grass you see the grass on the ground blonde I mean that's below arc get in there I'll see I left that going let's cut the rake off like that you see that disappear and when it beeps again nothing fulcrum click it it's coming back by itself and that holding it see and probably I said it doesn't shut off right there I wish it did I just have to click it again to shut it off but I know I'm scared of rain right now but now I actually don't roll that many emails I think in the whole time I in the business I've in 15 years or 14 seasons thirteen seasons I think it's 14 their name 249 remember now so you gonna do must have been Wednesday let's roll with this stuff over and that's alright I've only wrote probably five six thousand bells and that in that many years I mean I just don't and that came from another ranch down in East Texas see take thee to that see if I can do that I don't know why we're gonna have to probably chop this one up a little bit when I move around but I'll do it anyway that's kind of what we're done oh I will tell you we can't do any video outside because it's just too windy you go I don't even think you could hear it try to watch this dump one time off with the rake oh I thought I'd turn it up there right there back but break back on let's go and I'm not going very fast I think three point eight miles an hour everybody probably laughing at me but it's all I'm shoving a toner I mean even you see that row I'm shoving a ton of hay in this in this Baylor at one time it's it's better that way because your bales come out and ass and swearing you don't even have to pay attention did you just shove him so much in there it just makes a good belt but somebody asked me one time how I got bales that square on top I said you you shove a bunch a hey in the pickup as much as you can and it makes better bells but that and it's shoving so much in there was it was spilling out over the side of the picked up before I couldn't pick it all up it wasn't jamming or he think that it was just making little blobs and instead of me going I just decided I mean it was about four point form up you know four miles an hour was making it blob over the side and so I went down to a three point eight right now that looks like this looks like it's doing pretty good but yeah so that's that's the that's the what I'm talking about as far as sign yeah dang I'm gonna look just I don't even know what I'm gonna do it now I'm thinking about this staff and Oh Pappy haha that's what I was talking about about the a bTW yeah I'm sitting here talking about 0.2 miles and you know I can this thing does point two miles an hour between you know in increments so you can really fine tune this thing you just get like said I mean this is a point two difference in mile an hour of its spilling over the side you know they just you see that wind just blow in this system and I wish that I thought I was gonna be really good today because the wind was roll up my thumb alone over here to the next group staring at the ground I'll skip I'll go to the fourth row there sailor guys look at messing that that's a win doing that into this problem instead that's right here and while ago I had some issues cuz it gets it gets to the point see that's rolled on top of some hearty some hey that is gonna be in this thing and when you're shoving that much hate through it's really this right where it's getting hung up I mean a bunch of haters chef to a rape like this this really isn't a sorry I'm gonna chop that see look at that I got a big ball right there it's I may have to open my rake I'll watch it yeah yeah yeah I'm all right try to let more that dirt said the better-known have from picking it up it's just Nick Rawls man I mean it's a lot of Hank you just had if this hay had much moisture at all which it doesn't be sure I'm not gonna give you shut it back down yeah check another one right here and look at all that that is a blob of hay and ain't nothing you can do about it except pick it up slow just the way it all right now I can close it back I'll shove it about right there that seems to work see it way up there started flying out the side of that better see it'll suck it in if you you know except if you don't keep shoving it in you see back then but anyway after you see back there either I need to put a camera but yeah I got cameras all over my mouth squirt baylor baylor sorry distracted in my opinion I'll just talk about this for a minute and I know I'll ruffle some feathers but okay this sorry I'm going slower because I'm trying to hold a camera back while I'm sitting and kind of twisted around and anyway anyway oh that was painful when I think okay I think this new Helen might be able to bail faster than a John Deere maybe pickup wise the John Deere is better actually let me rephrase this the John Deere is a better baler in my opinion now I've never bailed with one but I've watched him bail and I've look I've been around them enough to look at how they're built and they're definitely a better built and baler everything's beefier especially around the pickup area not even close but I think this New Holland you can bail faster with as long as you're bailing good grass or drag let me rephrase that dry grass because the pick up on that thing is kind of I don't know I've never been super happy about about I've never had to do any work to it but it said you could eat just it clumps easier than a bit of baler and then I think in the John Deere would or especially up John Deere with sat you know a silage chopper running or whatever the roller or whatever that is but uh yeah that's just not triggered I'd throw that out there since I wasn't doing anything all right I guess I'll leave you alone I'm just Oh keep making bells much else to do I'm actually you know the only reason I picked the camera because some guys about to jump off I was about to jump off a bridge this all this height man I'd spent a lot of money on this stuff getting it to grow and they wouldn't wind it whenever winds are great in 60 days I thought we were done I mean I was like there's no way you're gonna get out here and be able to do this and just got lucky this last week it's been dry for about oh you know probably ten days now hearing the last bit of November and it allowed me to I finally get on everybody else was bailing there's everybody why aren't you bowing here aren't you my gran was right there cuz they thought I was crazy but I mean even as waiting as long as I did and I'll probably show you somebody I'll probably take some video of that down there at the bottom but I read it I didn't rut anything so to speak but it was wet like water to pull it off your tires while you were driving through it and then as long as you pass over something like that especially with a good grass on it one time it's not a big deal but with it was you go back over a second time then you start doing some damage and I can show you I did a little bit of damage in about him but for what they're paying for this hey this year it was worth it wasn't damaged that is gonna be felt let me put it that way so anyway alright how much am I in this here yeah I wanted to show you how they look at the wind look very nothing about it just look this is a whole rack you're gone out in the wind it's just a mess right now but I have no truck it's not gonna be fixed tomorrow look at look what it's doing back here it is a mess just a disaster I mean the winds picked it just had to be out of freakin West man I had this thing I had this thing set up look at that man [Music] look at that mess it's just a mess and hanging at the side of the baler now [Applause] what a disaster I mean it's hung out there now [Applause]
