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!
