We had this old generator that we used to use back when dad had the dairy and the power would go out. I have an upcoming need for 240 out to the barn, so I thought I'd give this a try and see if the A would be able to run it. Seemed to run the old thing just fine! ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Shof9EgwmeM
Cold start of a John Deere 4640. Of note, however, the tractor was plugged in with a block heater, but not started previously.

This is a quick video of the John Deere 5020 with the BW disk, disking with the setting sun, spring 2023.
I thought the contrast through the dust was kind of neat. If you can watch it in HDR, then you'll get a better feel for it.

In this video I have some drone footage of first crop, as well as some phone footage of some new alfalfa.
We're loading the hay with a '72 John Deere 4020, and hauling/pulling it with a 1964 John Deere 5020.
There's also some footage of the John Deere 4640 pulling the Hesston 4790 square baler.
The bales are 3x4x8 large-square bales, which weigh around 1100-1300 pounds a bale.

I needed to warm the engine up on the G to circulate some newly added coolant (they don't have a pump, so you have to get them hot for it to circulate). We received a lot of snow last night, but it warmed up some and was getting wet by the time I took this.

A few days ago I realized it's been a while since I had any seat time on the John Deere Model A, so I fired her up and went out for a ride across the dry farm. It was a beautiful late-summer evening & it was a perfect way to enjoy it.

It's (nearly) springtime again, and with springtime comes calving season.
This year the calves all came very soon to each other; as such we were pretty much done calving after only a short timeframe. The calves have been healthy and are doing well.
The cows are Hereford and Angus cattle.

After a long winter, I took the F-30 out for a quick drive across a field.
The field was pretty wet and soft with soft snow, so it did work the machine (running in 3rd of 4) a little bit.
The tractor fired right up too--after the grounded choke turns, it fired up on the first upthrow of the handle.
