I love your personality which is most important
I love watching farming videos on Nebraska, Iowa etc.
Greetings from Australia.
That's a happy girl.
What impresses me is to see you folks living out the joy that comes only from farming, where you get to enjoy the rewards of your own sweat, on your own land surrounded by family and friends.
Memories from a tiny (100 acres of woods and rocks) Grampa's farm, hearing the neighbor's two-cylinder John Deere tractors,getting loose hay in the barn just before the rain, and many hours spent on a brand new 1950 Allis WD,,,,,just me ,the tractor, and the land.
Wouldn't trade those memories with from 70 years ago with anyone.
You go, girl!
I really enjoy your videos. Thanks for sharing. You are lots of fun.
I live in NE Nebraska from NW Iowa, and Minnesota. Have worked at Blue Bunny milk and ice cream plants. BNSF Railway in Iowa Nebraska South Dakota and Minnesota and has amen me to Wyoming and Montana hauling farmers corn,wheat, soybeans, malt, flour and everything farmers produce, God Bless you all. So slot of jobs related to farming….
Laura you were on the VERY STARTING POINT OF FINISHING concrete
A jack of all trades is a master of none, but oftentimes better than a master of one." You are learning from the best, learning never stops.
No need to beat up on yourself, Laura. Things happen now and then. That's what it is to be a human being. You did a fine job troweling that concrete, girl! I always try to make it look the best that I can because it will be around longer than I will whether it's just the cows that see it or not? Looks to me that a rat or whatever burrowed out under that well engine pump also chewed through the generator wires and shorted them out, hence the burned wiring smell. I love flying too, never could afford to get to do much of it, always loved going to air shows and I'm a state fair junkie! You need make a rake with a long aluminum tube handle for that wagon. We have one made for work when we rake down grain trucks that we are loading with fertilizer pellets. Thanks for yet another nice bright cheerful video with your wonderful personality! I'm a big fan of you and your family!
Still my most favorite videos of yours...and the first one I ever watched!
Dale yeah! Nebraska born and raised right here! 402!
Farmers are jacks of all trades yet masters of none
I will see you in New York next week
I have to say, I'm kind of jealous... living in the UK we don't have anywhere near this much open space and working outdoors farming really appeals. Part of me wishes I was born in Nebraksa and I worked on a farm.... beats looking at computers.
Hello there. The trailers we have in the UK are on a pickup itch system and the Box has a steeper discharge and the forage uselly comes out in a lump.
It's true that farming builds character in young people. They learn that they have to be honest and transparent and do what they say they're going to do. There's no place to hide from your mistakes on a working farm: you have to own them, learn from them, and move on. I'm favorably impressed by Laura.
What did you study in College. That's the school when you're talking about not high school you're a little older than that aren't you I believe. Love what you guys do . My wife and I have a farm in Northwestern New Jersey.. We have 15 headed cow 50 head a donkey's standard and miniature.
Ground water is so cold. As cold as lake Superior. Minnesota is my state. The neighbors have a Lexion combine. They work on it alot. Only 2,000 acres. Good yield for Minnesota.
What a smiling baby doll. Laura is a leader in positive thinking. Good for her.
Farming is never be a single job. It´s with maintain the farm and equipment, maintain the mood of your farms peoples and family, enjoy the long days in the combine and grain cart truck and truck itself for doing little or big errands and just let the farm run somehow. awesome view and I do definitely like some vlogs.
Just thinking of some twitch stream if the long combine or grain cart or in the planting/harvest season coming up and there should be plenty of time and opportunity to talk a bit, share the same value and positive kind of life and love and thoughs.
Great time wished from germany!
For the Lord to put you in a life this great
Sun rise to sun down the life of a farmer/rancher.
I used to enjoy the silage period but we stored ours in towers so had to blow it up to the top in-between charging across the fields to pick up another trailer.
Dad is a hoot
Don't blame you. I loved hauling silage wagons and blowing the loads in the silo
Ok Sweets. That is an Air Tractor if not mistaken. LOL. I am older now and a lot more broken up than I used to be. I can no longer farm due to health. I so miss it. And if you have a boring day at Farming. Something is very wrong.
From Davisville,Rhode Island....Home of the Seabees...Nice job Papa Curt..And ALWAYS a nice job Laura ...
What a difference an upbeat positive attitude can make for one's day. Keep spreadin' those good vibes Laura!
Thanks for showing us the life of a farmer is never boring!
That's the issue, I think SHE IS BORED. LOL.
My Grandpa and Uncle had The Erisman Spraying Company in Geneva, NE.
I have watched many of your videos. This may be one of the most significant and important one. No, ... not because of chopping corn, or any other farm happenings. Rather, the lesson being taught about integrity and transparency. You had the video running when your father came to the cab door, and captured his exchange with you. He left and you diverted from wagons to personal character, "... because I love you ... transparent ...." You captured the immediate reaction through your camera.
If I understand, YOU are the one editing the videos, and posting them to YT. YOU had two opportunities to leave some "film on the floor." The first, the exchange with your father, the second, your mea culpa. YOU chose to keep them both in the video and post. This took courage and truthfulness. You did not leave "film on the floor." You could have cut them both.
Laura, you taught everybody a valuable lesson, regardless of age. Many hunger for genuineness in a 2021 world of phony and façade. You brought that to the table and presented it, full front-center. Your facial expressions, tone of voice and blush told everybody that you are a genuine person, far greater than dumping silage wagons, planting corn, chopping out male rows, or ( ....). You ratcheted up respect for Laura as a person. You took a big step up on the ladder of maturity. It was not missed. Thank you.
A jack of all trades.and master of none
Great video Laura
The cows can’t wait for y’all to leave, so they can put their hooves in the cement!
สวัสดีครับผมชอบไร่ของคุณมากครับดูสงบเรียบ และชีวิดประจำวันของคุณดูน่าสนุก
Laura you are a real hoot. Most young woman your age are out there for the glamor and attention. You are a very down to earth young woman.
Hey you already got your man woo hoo keep your great videos coming for our enjoyment. Thank you very much for what you do.
Hi just found your channel, what a great place to live and work..How many acres are you farming..What sort of farming fo you do, and how many acres do you plant on..I from New Zealand, will follow your working progress, and the fun using that old army truck..What sort of crops do you grow..Yeah its alot of questions but it's really interesting..Goodluck with your channel..
hey my name is talyor obviously and i work for Gnuse who makes the wagons you are using and my uncle showed me this video and its really cool to see people out on farms using them. hope everyone has a good day and stays safe
It's not that obvious that your name is Talyor.
@@warrenblain2365 pretty sure it is, warren blain
@@jamesdrake2306 time will tell.
@@jamesdrake2306 J A M E S. i like anonymous.
I could get lost in your eyes, you are absolutely stunning 🥰
I did not see you wipe off the back of the trailer with your hands, the same thing a gravel train does after they dump, and before they hit the road so stones and gravel DOES NOT SHATTER WINDSHIELDS! I’m NOT being rough on you AT ALL! Or by ANY means, I love you, your family, grant, it’s good to see the younger generations care about farming in this country!
Awesome! Hugs from south Germany
Hi from the Tully farm in Manhattan ks.
Nice video nice to see you good morning 🌄😊 Laura
I spent the first half of my life working on the family farm and I loved all the skills I learned. Sadly nobody took over the farm so that family heritage has come to an end, but I will never forget the memories and all the things I learned. ♥
Nobody took over the farm? I mean, you don't even have to work it, you can sell the land and machinery. Who got to do that? And really, one of the best jobs is farming. and 90% people are born into farming to be farmers. enless you get 900 thousand just to start up your farm, thann your not gonna get that chance again. :(
Same here. Sad to see the family farm go after being in the family for 4 generations. I saw some land near our old farm that was going to be auctioned - my uncle said he thinks it will go for $10K an acre. It was 100 acres.
Good job smoothing out the concrete, that plane looks so much fun I wish I was up there to fly up above bird fly.
It would be a real joy to meet you. Love you TH-cam.
I love your reaction to the spray plane. I still get that feeling at 56 years old and decades living away from the farming community I grew up in.
the cows were coming by because they hear the term bull float. and thought they were going in a pool to float around. heheh
Shout out from Schuyler Nebraska 👍
I love your videos. You present the farm in a raw and authentic way. You provide something all Americans need to see. How hard farmers work and what they do to keep Americans fed. Thank You.
You are a GOD SEND!!! Your Dad is SOO proud of you.. Please be safe!!!
Hello Laura Felix here from Ireland just got your videos up love them hope to get to Nebraska in October I have friends in wanno not far Lincoln
Luv your Good Morning 's. Have fun in New York.
Interesting to see the silage activities. I have never seen a farmer do it themselves. In our country (Netherlands), there is a lot of maize and silage chopping, but it's all done by big contractors (and big equipment). The guys driving the silage wagons here are going at very high pace all the time. So nice to the (relatively) calm pace at your farm. Thanks!
👍another awesome video from miss Nebraska farm lady🚜
Just think how things would be if every one of our younger generation sat and listened to America's
"Poppa curt's"🌾🌾
We'd have millions and millions of miss Laura's.. Smart. Hard working.. Eager to learn and grow👍
Take care 🌽 🌽 🌽
Hope to see ya sitting with them new York farm ladies🚜🌾

I love the Lord, because He has heard my voice and my supplications. Because He has inclined His ear to me, therefore I will call upon Him as long as I live. Laura love your vedeo and your smile keep smileing GODbless u.
Смотрю всегда,первый комментарий! ВЫ МОЛОДЦЫ!!
Just subscribed. Both my wife and I enjoy your videos, You are so upbeat and a breathe of fresh air! We loved watching the wedding and I can tell you 2 were made for each other. My wife was raised on a dairy farm in Wisconsin...when we were first married we would spend two weeks there and I would be running a corn head or bailing hay.....nothing like you guys do now. It was so much manual labor and those hay bales were heavy.
I learned dairy farming is a 24/7 operation and very little change for vacation unless you hire someone to do the chores.
The most impressive video was that huge dairy farm in New York.
Looking forward to more of your videos. The best to you and your family.
Alright I’m just going to say it! You better get your Pilots License right away this year after Harvest you start School Little Sister! You better! I haven’t seen you happier with any other equipment! It’s what you want maybe you just didn’t think of it. You are capable and smart! You can see the big picture. You have excellent knowledge of Agriculture and you will be fabulous at Crop Dusting! Do not let your joy go to waste it’s the indication that you should! God Bless you Sister I hope you get your wings Kid!😏❤️🖖🏼🇺🇸✨
I agree, she and Grant definitely have the talents and skills to become pilots.
U have a pure heart, love it, don't let this world destroy u. Love u
Great video!
Each day new day achieve &s Succeed.
"Big scoop. Get It in there, big scoop." Reminds me of the shit my grandpa used to say lol. Wish he was still around.
Farming simulator 22 definitely needs crop dusters like you have in real life. I wanna fly a plane to spray my crops in fs22.
I love the Air Tractor, that is the best spray Aircraft. Love it.
Maybe you can do a segment on how the corn is a benifit. Because of all the resources involved, how is one ear of corn per stalk a benifit in feeding the world? It seems like diminishing returns. I'd like to know. Thanks.
Aurora? Stones throw from I-80. Between Grand Island and Lincoln.
You are a beauty. You do very well on the camera. You voicd clear, nice tone, well spoken, no pauses, ums and ahs. You are pretty much a natural talent at this.
Laura, loving the vids, can you pls tell me how big your farm is that you use for crops and stuff, thanks very much.
Hi Laura, Great video, one of your best!!! You're really getting good at them. Since you and Grant are so fascinated with flying why not think about the both of you getting a private pilots license.Yeah it costs a little, but think of the adventures you'll both have. Green eyes, green shirt, and endless green fields, yes it all works. Be prepared to be buried in New York with a ton of your fans. Love Ya.
Hey, what is the reason you guys don't drive next to the chopper? Would be more efficient to have 2 tractors with wagons go at it. Less coupling and the chopper can keep going the whole time.
Awesome job young lady! Y’all are so inspirational keep up the good work. God Bless all of y’all.
The Ag Pilot 👌
edit: That's Crop DustIng (it pays well if you are willing to network i.e., five seasons and you get to buy one of your own at $525,000)
... What a beautiful spirit !! Amazing attitude and beautiful smile !! When the day come for you to be off on your own ,, Dad and Grandpa are going to be missing the best hand around ...
.. Agree watching the crop dusting planes is pretty cool ... I especially like watching the helicopters that spray ,, the maneuvers are impressive ..
... "Something fun about destruction" ..... do we need to be worried about Laura ?? ,, or just watchin' out ....lol.. Love the farm girl video's ,, always so real and positive ..
I grew up in a farming community in Central Nebraska. This video brings back so many good memories of my childhood and teen years before I went out in the world
Don't forget "green" is The Color of Money. 🤑
Good afternoon laura. I love Nebraska a beautiful mostly flat state. I hope to have a holiday there sometime. Greetings from northumberland england.
Love watching your videos so bubbly always smiling you alway turn a dull day into a bright one 😀
Nothin better than tractor time ! I used to haul egg shells out to farmers in the area with a side spreader & an 8100.Best job ever. Had an eagle fly right over top of me like 40' up and land in a cotton wood tree along the Logan.
Linda...be sure to give your Grandpa a hug and tell him Thank You for the knowledge and you love him!!! You will look back someday and be glad you did.
A SeaBee in Vietnam? Salute! 😎👍
Where was your grandpa stationed in Vietnam?
I was stationed about 100 miles north of Da Nang in I Corp in 1969.
I was on Navy river boats.
Very impressed with your daily work and the efficiency of your farm.
My dad was in the Seabees during Vietnam up until 1988.. love the Seabees flag in the equipment shed.
With those gorgeous emerald eyes, yes…green is definitely your color 🥰 You and Cale make a great tag team! Love ❤️ you, Grammy
Nebraska is gorgeous
Awesome air show Laura
Thank you for your service Grandpa 🇺🇸
Good morning beautiful :) Wishing grandpa kurt all the best for his surgery and that he is doing well. Praying for his health and for all your family :)
Green is also the color of the good stuff that you get to put in your bank for all the hard work you do.. Keep it up Laura your awesome.
With the fields that are damaged; are they insured to recover loss? and the radio's you use, are they GMRS?
I love your work
Hello there. Jack of all trades. Master of none. And when you lay concrete always tamp it to get the air out. It last longer.
Yes, always tamp it down. That also raises the cement above the rock so that there is a nice layer of cement on top to smooth over with a float. I always put remesh wire and rebar in every slab that I pour so that it won't crack and pull apart over the years.
Such a sweetie pie! When I graduated from Georgia Tech in 74, I helped my farmer classmate from high school until I went on active duty in the Air Force. We baled hay, inoculated cattle, planted soybeans, etc. Many years later I found myself working as an assistant winemaker and often driving tractors and forklifts. I can identify with having a very diverse workday.
Good morning! 🇵🇱
Wow. Just found your channel and I love it. You are so cute, happy, and positive. Great job on the videos and thanks for sharing.
Finally something I know about... wohoo concrete..... prep the most important part..... and plenty of help. Hreat vid Laura
I did that at my golf course job last Sunday morning. The irrigation system was running and I went under the spray with a work cart. 🚿
You WATCHED more than "did it". You'll have less trouble and less maintenance expense with the windmill approach.
Hey Laura, money is also green. 🤣
Great job driving the tractor pulling silage wagons Laura
