I'm in north Florida ,i enjoy your videos ,I used to pump out of the Santa Fe river . But its not allowed anymore. I used to irrigate pepper ,cucumbers and beans with a Rainbow cable tow. Would go ck the gun at 2 or 3 am and sleep in my truck till i heard the water hitting the cab that would wake me up. I'd go shut the motor off go home and sleep till 7am and get ready for our day. Of course i was a lot younger then .
The memories shared about the pump earned my subscription. As I’ve gotten older I have tried to pass down “stuff” and a little knowledge of the older ways but the younger ones here just don’t seem to care. Glad to see you out there keeping the old pieces going, at least every once in a while!

Also thought that was an LA accent, north central Alabama here.

Thankfully I caught the tail end of the travellers on our farm. I'd say around 2002 is when the last one bit the dust and hasn't been used since.
We still enjoy it from time to time but there’s no doubt a pivot is the way to go!
You just gave me a great idea. Thanks for sharing.
That bring memories of the 70s, when I grew tobacco.
What size hose is that you're using, and how long is it to run from the irrigation pump to the traveler?
Field has underground irrigation but from the irrigation riser to the traveler there’s 660 feet of 4 inch hose
