A Note From Lori:  How To Pull A Post Without A Tractor (Tips From My Dad)

5/30/2014

1 Comment

 
Moving to a farm near my parents has given me priceless opportunities to learn more about their early lives and heritage.  Tackling various projects on my farm, with their help, has helped me learn so much about the way they did things back then, especially the ways of my Dad and his father.

The bottoms of the posts holding up my barn had all rotted through, causing the roof to be very uneven.  To fix it, we cut off the post bottoms, pulled the broken piece out of the ground, jacked up the roof to level it out, and poured a new footer for each post.

Not able to get a tractor to the posts, Dad told me to get two rocks and two pipes.  Huh?  Having no idea what that was going to do; I fetched the rocks and pipes.  As the video demonstrates, we ended up rocking the post straight up and out of the ground!  Nice!

In April, Lori traveled to San Antonio, TX for the 2014 TSCRA Convention and Trade Show.  She had the opportunity to meet Tim Mumm, who was with Bextra Bale Feeders.

The Samuel Roberts Noble Foundation conducted a study over different brands of livestock feeders. Their research indicates that the Bextra Bale Feeder demonstrates hay savings of up to 70% over conventional feeders and consistent with more costly and large, heavy cone feeders.  The Bextra feeder has proven to be the customer favorite for ease of use and hay savings.


Founded in 1945, The Noble Foundation  conducts direct operations, including assisting farmers and ranchers, and conducting plant science research and agricultural programs, to enhance agricultural productivity regionally, nationally and internationally.  

See how much money Bextra Bale Feeders can save you.

To add a bit of color variety, Lori keeps a few Longhorn cows within her cattle herd. Now that it is calving season, all of her cows are beginning to have their babies. There are two Longhorn calves that stand out from all the newcomers in the herd because of their beautiful markings and spots.  These two babies were born only a couple of weeks apart and were sired by the same Charolais bull.  Every healthy calf is always wonderful to have, but having a couple of pretty ones, like these, is a real plus!
