Not sure if I already posted this link here but I don't think so. Its an aerial drone view of the winding trail through the woods where I go to check on the grain bins this past weekend. Yes, we have a lot of trees here!

Wow! What neat movie, really shows what your country is like. We've been very warm(and muddy) here in Southern Michigan. What's the temps like where you are?
 
You should drive it at night time :) People have got a bit lost there but I never have a problem. Its our little island of green seeing as most of the surrounding fields have had all the trees cleared off and farmed. I guess some day that will happen to this land too but not while I'm farming it.
We are well below normal snow for the winter and the past week has seen some record high temps. Well up in the 30s but the snow did not melt too much.
 
Very nice work. Somewhere in SK if I remember correctly. I have some "fringe" relatives who farmed in SK near Cabri in the SW part. They are now retired and live in Saskatoon.
 

That was pretty good camera work! You've improved since the 'Distracted Driving' video! Even in that one, though, you had ME outclassed!
Thanks for sharing! :lol:

Thanks but I can't take much credit for the camera work. Once I got the drone setup and rolling I just drove and it followed me wherever I drove. I just had to make sure the initial altitude setting was a little above the tree tops.
 
There is a "one-way" out there to drivers left a short distance before the four bins. Can tell by the "extended" tail wheel.
 
(quoted from post at 05:40:16 01/25/17) Thanks for the video. With remote bins I wonder if you ever dry the grain? Augers are all PTO?
I don't own a dryer and never had to dry . Got a few aeration bins at the yard to cool and minimally dry grain if it is dangerously tough but otherwise sell it as is and take the moisture deduction on the price.
Got one big pto auger for harvest time and the rest gas powered.
 
Very observant Roger. That is the John Deere "surflex tiller" as seen in my video from back in September working a patch of summerfallow. It was my uncle's and is a tough old machine dating to the early 1950s.
 
I have to buy a drone. No! on second thought I will wait for one of those Amazon drones to crash land on my roof after they start using them in greater numbers for delivery.
 
Thanks for the video! I grew up with a WR9 pulling a 10' M&M one way. I did not see the video from September.

What was the implement parked near the 4 bins? Tillage or planter of some sort? It had the Vee hitch evidently to flex and pull the wider machine.
 
I had one for about 45 mins . Flew it 2 times . Aint seen it sense the 2nd time. It took off went way up in the air and just took off and left. Ive tried to find that stupid thing cant find it anywhere in the woods or fields just nowhere to be found.

The machine you refer to was probably the 24 foot Morris rod weeder. A B1-24. Next to that is a pair of John Deere end wheel drills.
The disking fallow video I referred to was this one ..
