It is nice to see all of these hands on Fathers. Seems like the KZfaq Homestead community in Oklahoma raise'em that way ! We need that nation-wide ! Scratch that... World-wide.

@@mpedmar9701 you know, I'm 72 yrs old, my dad was an Oklahoma cotton farmer in the early 50's. We pretty much had free run of our farm..our shared old horse, our collie and all the boy cousins I ran with. But I knew, it was my dad who kept that tight eye on me! Taught me how to drive a Ford cub tractor by age 7, moved it from one farm to another, with him following me in his truck! Oklahoma daddy's (or at least mine did) have kept close eyes on their kids. That don't mean they are not tight with their kids...but mine almost always (especially with their daughters) knew where they were and that they minded. Yes, we need those 2 parent, involved families again. By today's standards, we would have been eligible for govt programs....BUT my dad worked from sun up to sundown and many times harvested and ran a bulldozer into the night on a 2nd job all in Oklahoma's sun, heat...complete with squaw line winds that would lay crops down with their winds and tornadoes that could and often did wipe out a whole yr on the farm. We would take him a hot meal on a tray to the field just before our bedtime. ! Such memories this brought back! But I still love my OK roots!

@@judybass4339 Sounds to me like you were truly blessed ! .May God continue to bless you and your family.

Don’t be depressed there are many good KZfaq’s and families that you can follow that really help you go on when you’re going through things and look to the Lord he will strengthen you

Love to see your new trailer. are you going to burn the pile of bushes in background might b snakes in it.

I’d bet since he has been a blessing since Dutch dated and married Brandi.

I agree, wholeheartedly and love your channel, Dutch (my father was a Marine Staff Sergeant in WWII - Philipines.) Randy is helping, but I am near his age and he probably doesn't tell you about his aches and pains. I know you will be gentle on him, and thank you for your service to our great country!

So glad to c ur father-in-law ? helping u... That's a really great job ur doing!!! Love to hear those cardinals singing in the background!!! My favorite bird... Looking good, Dutch!!!

Yes... Love to c a year-lapse video of ur place!!!! Bet alot of viewers will also!!! Great idea!!!!!

He’s already done one

The expense would b prohibitive. Theres already a small portion in the pig pen. It's a darn shame, but it truly would help with not just the shady "side", it could help if someone accidentally wanders over the property line & got hurt

@@rebeccaplumlee9601 wouldn't be that prohibitive if they did 1-2 rolls per month or barbed wire. Doesn't need to do it all at once, just a little at a time & eventually it will be completed. But just waiting until they can afford to do it all, could take quite a while.

And electrify it !!!

Hi Rachel how are you doing love you from Sandy in Syracuse New York

@@sandygilbert1037 hello. Doing well, how are you?

👍

wondered that myself...thought they had a full plate and maybe in the future

They are building one like they have at their old house!

Time lapse would be very interesting. Please.

Yes, that is needed for sure!!

Dutch said generator to start while they build up solar bank

Oh, can't leave out Dutch's super sensational FIL, Randy...another excellent worker & tuff stud (like my just over 60 talented hubby🏋️‍♂️).
