    Just thought I would give a shout out to you guys. What a great informative and clean family channel. We have 3 kids and have a small ranch in Malta, MT and they love your channel also. Our kids talk about the 747 evertime we go to Havre. We have pictures of them in the wheels of the big girl. What an awesome state and place to raise kids. Thanks for keeping it real and have a blessed year.

    Thanks for another great video Welkers. Lots of good content on this one. Lots of projects.
    Bob you did a great job fixing the oil pan on your daughter’s car. Good going on the oil pan. All of you sure have great talents at fixing things. Nice work Bob.
    Nick I love the new technology you put on the sprayer. Appreciate you explaining it to us. Makes running the sprayer a lot easier.
    Nice new Raven system. Great.
    Putting equipment away for the winter is a must. Keeps it out of the weather.
    Weather plays hard on equipment that sits out in the open.
    Glad you have those nice big sheds.
    Thanks for everything. Appreciate all of you Welkers. Take care.

    Glad your daughter did not get hurt bumping the rock, never fun to fix things but at least it did not sound like anyone was injured. Driving along and hitting a big rock or a down log with the offroad truck was to common when young, not fun to suddenly stop when not expected. Great explanation on the sprayer Nick, thanks. Hope you all stay safe and healthy.

At one point in time, I involved with Raven and spray rate controllers. It has come a long way! Keep up the good work, all of you!

      We need our farmers. I live in Northern Maine and am surrounded by potato fields mostly some broccoli and those are just the biggest crops I'm aware of. But we also have a lot of Amish and small family farms everywhere. No problem finding fresh produce around. Without our farmers I wouldn't want to imagine what the world would be like.

      I believe that in that area of Montana they have to be careful not to pulverize the soil too much as it will drift with their winds. I'm a bit surprised that they plan to level it in the fall as ridges catch snow to add to the moisture. Still, as Leg Arms said a while ago- an hour of fall work saves 3 hours of spring work.

I wouldn't want to invest in some of this high priced machinery either, especially with the lack of rain taking down how much you yield in crops.
