I'm from just north of Dubuque and two weeks ago I hosted a tractor ride . We started in Sherrill went through Dubuque and to Dickeyville then down along the Mississippi river east of Potosi up through Potosi then got onto North main street went up and around until we ended up in Caseville. We had lunch there,then took the Ferry back to Iowa than along the great river road back to where we started. We had around 30 tractors and many of them said that it was the most scenic ride they have ever been on. Most of them said that Potosi was the best part of the ride.

Some of these places like "The Valley" are becoming quite familiar to the longterm subscribers like me. The 8235R video was not the only one I recall from this area. That being said, what's far more important is that you guys get to make plenty of feed for your growing cattle herds. Potosi is a scenic town from the riverside, that's true.

Hello, from central Illinois! I hope you can get that hay dried & baled before it rains. This brings back a lot of memories of growing up on the family farm. I'll never forget my mom coming home from work as a receptionist at Memorial Hospital in Springfield. She told how a lady was complaining about how "easy the farmers have it". (This was back in 1994, because my mom passed away in 1995.) This ignorant lady said, "Well, yeah! They get FREE gas. . . those gas trucks haul fuel out to them and fill those big fuel tanks up." She actually thought that farmers get all of their gas & diesel fuels for FREE!!! SMH.

I bought a couple of compost thermometers, about 14” or so long. They’d work great for checking bale temps if there’s any concern. I wish I had them when we had hay on the farm.. I live in N.M. where we have dairies, and every year it seems we have hay fires due to internal combustion.. it’s pretty sad because it’s usually a couple hundred grand in losses. Thanks for the videos. Ps. I love that hay rake!

Yes if you look at certain points in the video, you'll see a little silver "brake disk" up on top of the dolly wheel fork pivots, with a small spring-loaded brake pad-- those are "wobble brakes" that essentially keep enough resistance on the wheel fork pivots to prevent the wheels from wobbling going down the road at transport speed, while still allowing the wheels to pivot follow along in a turn, or swing around backwards for backing up...
