We had a little over here too. All in all, it was a great trip.

We love this campground! This time of year it is so peaceful.

Likewise! I only lost about a quarter of the original video. Didn't take but about 10 minutes to reshoot. Hope your fur baby is feeling better. Happy camping!

Yes, I buy packets of color glow to add to the campfires. Hoping it is non toxic!!!

@cedarfallsfarm9833 Color packets added to fire typically contain metal salts. These salts, when heated in the flame, emit different colors of light depending on the specific metal. Here's a breakdown of some common metals used and the colors they produce: * Copper: Green or blue-green * Lithium: Red * Sodium: Yellow * Potassium: Violet * Calcium: Orange-red * Barium: Green These packets are often used for recreational purposes, such as changing the color of flames in campfires or fireplaces, and are generally considered safe when used as directed.

Good to know!

You might have to start back at it!

That would give it a little more flavor. After experimenting for some time, I believe Leggs is one of the best choices out there.

@@cedarfallsfarm9833 we also add black pepper and crushed red pepper depending on how hot we want it. Leggs is very good stuff.

@@tomfavre669 appreciate you stopping by and dropping a comment!

Always work to be done on the farm!

I've been buying LEM sheep casings, but the last two batches I bought had a lot of blowouts. I need a new source and don't want to buy something packaged in Asia. Let me know if you find a good source. Thanks for the comments and for tuning in to the channel. Mark

@KevinEwing-uz8ls be careful, it can be addicting! Enjoy the process, but moreso, enjoy the finished product. Appreciate you dropping by and leaving a comment.

Thanks for dropping by, Kevin!

@@adnacraigo6590 it's a really good sausage. A lot of work for a small amount. That A C Leggs is hard to beat. The #10 is my favorite.

I’ve been using Legg #7 for rub for many years. It has served me well. Enjoy your videos!

@@KBdaKB much appreciated! Nothing like making your own sausage. Their Italian sausage seasoning is on point too.

@@rolivaw2000 it is an awesome spot! We'll be back in January for our anniversary.

It certainly is. I had a couple of bags of trash in the truck, but it was late when we arrived. The trash pandas found it. What a mess this morning.

These are just big pets. They are really low maintenance and live their best lives. When we sold off our chicken operation, I couldn't bring myself to part with the goats. Told the wife I would love to have an intact billy so we could have some little goats!

They will put a smile on your face, although my wife hates it when she opens the door and a goat rushes in!😉😂

We're trying to wear it out! Camping every month if possible. October camping ended up being at the farm since there was no power in the house. It sure was nice taking warm showers and watching the news during the hurricane outage. Those red flags were definitely a suggestion to a couple of folks!

It definitely was. I did go back after I recorded this video and reinforced the welds with my MIG welder. I was still a little frustrated with it when I did the initial repairs. This was supposed to be a temporary mod, but you know it is only temporary if it doesn't work.

Gasless mig - fluxcore wire

I went back later with the MIG and fixed it up better. The two metals from the exhaust and the muffler weren't too compatible. I was able to do a much better job with the MIG.

PS, as in indicator of how far behind I am, this was recorded in August!

@@cedarfallsfarm9833hey- with everything that’s been going on and you trying to get out and about when you have free time - I totally understand! We’re over here just trying to hang on to one day after another with kids and projects and sports and life! 😂

@@israelswearingen8219 absolutely! I would like to one day buy some shielding gas to use with it.

@@newteripin no, it's not too hot. There is some red pepper and sage. The AC Leggs #29 is milder. I do believe there is a hotter blend, but I've reached a point to where I can't tolerate the spices. It's unfortunate as I always liked hot and spicy. Guess it's a getting older thing. You can look up their different blends online. I also like their Sweet Italian Sausage blend.

That's awesome! Glad it helped you out. Enjoy riding the trike, I ride my wife's more than my bike.

@@ericgaskins571 my sole reason for serving as a Fire Commissioner! Those biscuits are spot on!

Appreciate it!

That's awesome! We're fairly rural here, so these balloons must travel a long way. Just found another this week while cutting fields again and trying to clean up hurricane Helene damage.

@@cedarfallsfarm9833 True 👍

It actually did help. The best thing was moving them outside to enjoy the summer sun. They have been thriving on the deck. We just had upper 40's F last night, so I guess it is about time for them to go back in the sunroom. Honestly, that scale almost took them out.

Hey, a country boy can survive! We're looking out for each other down here. I just have a lot of trees to clean up, so we're good. I worry about the folks just up the road in North Carolina. They're in a bad way.

Quit isn't in my vocabulary. It make take time but we're going to be fine.

Much appreciated, but we're good. Just going to take our time. I've been more focused on my role as a Fire Commissioner here at Canebrake Fire District. Been riding around in my truck taking food and water to the older folks in the community. We'll recover in time.

@@cedarfallsfarm9833 good to hear. I'm sorry things have been slow in getting to you. Please reach out if there is anything you fine folks need.

Our farm was hammered pretty hard. No buildings are damaged, but tons of trees down everywhere. I've not done anything here at the farm other than a partial assessment. Been working with our Fire Department, cooking for them, delivering food and water to some of our older folks, picking up groceries, etc. Back over there tomorrow morning to feed our 1st Responders and Law Enforcement. Still no power down here in the Southern area of the county. Some spots are good, but no power here before Friday. Dropping $70 a day on gas.

@@cedarfallsfarm9833 Good for you. Both of my sisters and my next door neighbors have trees on their houses or some roof damage.

When I think about Western North Carolina, we are blessed. My stepson is just outside of Hendersonville. He was just able to get out of his driveway today. Thought I would have to drive up and cut my way in.

@@cedarfallsfarm9833 The neighbor across the road had twelve trees across his 150 foot long driveway. One of the root sections broke his water line so he has no water either. It took a while to cut his car out.

That's for sure, my friend! So many lost everything, so we're blessed to only have to clean up.

Hi Ron, I actually stopped by and spoke with my neighbor that works over there. He came back to his farm to clean up the damage. There were some trees lost and water and power were off. He called me late this afternoon to let me know that both had been restored. We're going to cancel our reservations due to the damage here at our farm. We're without power power here in lower Greenville County. I'm a Fire Commissioner here at Canebrake Fire District and there is extensive damage throughout the district. Between the farm and the community, we've decided to stay close and continue camping here until we can restore some semblance of order. Enjoy your stay over there, we're certainly going to miss being there. I have a new video that is finishing uploading now showing a little of the local damage. Check it out if you have time.

Thanks for the info. Prayers your way and thanks for the info!

@@RonLedford-p1d much appreciated!

@@RonLedford-p1d much appreciated!

Very kind words! I'd say it's in the ballpark of Jimmy Dean, but in my opinion, even better. #10 has a little more sage and pepper in it than #29. #29 is a little milder. Both are really good. I almost always use #10 and add some more sage and a little sugar. On occasion I add maple syrup. I also love their Sweet Italian Sausage blend. Once you get started the sky's the limit. I tried for a long to to get the right flavor profile. A.C. Leggs made me stop the search. Good luck with the sausage making. I'll be adding another that primarily focuses on stuffing breakfast links and hopefully soon adding a tutorial on Merguez sausage.

We're going to be on 40 on Tuesday. Another retired couple are joining us on 41. We're looking forward to it. I really love the COE campgrounds. With the Senior Lifetime Pass, what a bargain!

Much appreciated! Heading back over there next week. Hanging out at Myrtle Beach State Park this week. Have to catch up on the farm for a couple of days and out again.

I used my usual A.C. Leggs Seasoning #10. I'm fairly certain I do briefly go over it.

@@cedarfallsfarm9833 I always make my own with mixed results. I think I will order A.C. Leggs.

You can't go wrong with A.C. Leggs! You can find it on Amazon.

Much appreciated! I believe you can use one tablespoon per pound of meat if you use the A. C. Leggs seasoning. Have fun making your sausage!

I do add just a bit of sugar and a little extra sage. There are some good resources on the A. C. Leggs website on making smaller batches. Best of luck with the sausage making. I hope to add a new one soon on making Merguez sausage. It's a North African lamb sausage. Absolutely delicious.

Much appreciated! I hope this helps someone along the way to make a decision to stay at Eastbank. It's an almost 8 hour drive for us pulling the 5th wheel, but well worth it.

@@dewaynebrown8423 and it was, brother! Breakfast is always mighty fine!

@cedarfallsfarm9833 yes sir! It's always better especially out camping. 👍

@@dewaynebrown8423 for sure!

Heck yeah! I cook a lot every month at our Fire Department for the 1st Responders Breakfast. I'm convinced serving size is packaging related. I just haven't been brave enough to buy the 10 lb box at Restaurant Depot yet!🤣😂

@@adnacraigo6590 I got smart on that Saturday morning. Friday evening I was welding in shorts, ended up getting slag down my boots and burning my ankles. Also had arc burns on my left knee. That is why I was wearing long pants in the video. A rare occasion for me!😁😉

Much appreciated! Do you keep your auger assembly in the freezer? For me, that is an absolute necessity. I make sure my meat is cubed up and almost frozen before starting. That will keep you grind looking good and prevent the fats from breaking down. I need to post a couple more of these type videos. On one I will be making a merguez sausage and sharing the recipe. It will include stuffing it into lamb casings. Appreciate you taking time to watch the video and share comments. Mark

No, the bike does not have to be turned on. There is typically a "plug" in place to be removed. It is easier to turn the bike upside down to install the front wheel assembly. Watch closely for the alignment of the brake when installing the wheel. Good luck!

Thanks, I'll watch out for that. I've had this trike over 49 days and I've never even sat on it because the wheel they shipped me had a hole in it. Hopefully I'll drive it this weekend.

@@sardaracampa1733 hit me up if you have questions. I'll be glad to try to help.

Yeah, like an idiot, I noticed that after tearing into the box. It did help in breaking down the box.😁😉

@@adnacraigo6590 for sure!

We'll have to check it out. We're loving this place.

Oh yeah! I fight privet all over the farm, especially down by the river. At least the goats like it

It has some hard hours on it. Been using it for 12 years now. Definitely couldn't maintain the farm without it. I also have a Ford New Holland 1715. I use it a lot for cutting fields.

@@cedarfallsfarm9833 I have a New Holland TC-30 which is a 30 horsepower diesel that I use on our 40 acres mostly for mowing and firewood/logs.

Maybe! A friend, yeah right!!!

Just don't set it on front when you turn it on! Yikes!!! ;-)
