Right Back to Where We Started / September 3 & 4 (Highwood Montana Wheat Harvest) 

Your end of harvest comments are spot on and you folks are one of a kind . I truly appreciate what you have always given to us. You time, insight and experience. And yes, Nebraska, it's not for everyone . Thank God!

I have truly enjoyed this harvest year. Look forward to see what you all are up to next.

Be it ever so humble there's no place like home.

I always enjoy them. Appreciate you both for taking us along the journey. I enjoy watching the videos, the day to day activities, history of the towns and the amazing scenery!! Thank you both!!!!❤

Those loyal viewers enjoy the part of your life you choose to share. We will be here when you post again.

Don't thank us, we thank you. I wish I had your health and energy.

Tracy and Jim, I have truly loved your videos this past harvest season. You have seen some pretty great stuff around Highwood and I love the scenery as well as the bumper crops. It’s amazing what we can grow when God tips the clouds over and blesses the farmer. It doesn’t happen all time, especially in the dry prairies, so how special it is when you can be apart of it. I love watching the August videos over again. Thank you for taking us with you and I hope you can join Brett and the gang next year. Great Falls was so interesting too. I’d love to go one day. May God Bless you and Jim this next year. Rest up for next season. Keep doing this. We love it. I love the old videos too. Great times on the older combines.

Welcome home! Tracy, you are a great videographer, enjoy every minute - Thanks!

Geez! What a great season with you all! You got me a little misty eyed at the end! Thanks for letting us in! See you soon! Thanks!

Another great video series ! Thanks for taking us along for the ride. Hubby did a harvest in 2001 for his birthday. He was out for 18 days with Altendorf Harvesting. He loves the green equipment so he really liked working for them and watching this harvest. He works for a farmer in eastern Pa. All he has ever done since age 8 is farm and drive a truck over the road. We really look forward to your videos. Can't wait for the fall series to begin. Be well and stay safe !

Wonderful experience for this viewer to enjoy ! Thanks Again for sharing your talents and skills 👍

Glad you made it home safely. Thanks for taking us along for the ride. Looking forward to fall harvest and next year will be here before you know it.

Thank you for allowing us to follow you on your journey

Thank you, Jim and Tracy, for opening your "harvest lives" with us this year and in the past. I also enjoy your other, older content from previous years. I appreciate your dedication and endurance to show your subscribers many aspects of your life while working, the sincere joy that is the reward of that honest work and your frustrations and challenges as well. Please continue to create new videos as I'm sure we all enjoy the scenery and the personal thoughts you and Jim bring to each episode. Y'all are in my thoughts and prayers. God Bless...

Tracey, Thank you ❣️ You are a wonderful spokesperson ❣️ We LOVE that you have taken the time to tell the stories❣️ You and Jim have Blessed many ❣️

Hurray home again and back to harvest time; I enjoy all of your videos.

Thank you so much. Your videos are very informative and enjoyable.

Thank YOU for your great videos. Looked forward to each day. Happy house cleaning until the combine calls again

And Thank You! I enjoyed every video. All were done with feeling...that's why I liked them. Good Luck in the future. Hope to see you guys on your corn venture.

I love these videos. I would love to be able to do this kind of work again. I grew up doing it on a much smaller scale. It brings back great memories. Thank you for making me smile every day. I feel like I was born to do this kind of work but just took a different turn at some point.

Thank you for sharing both of your time and work. The both of you are a different breed. God bless ya. Oh and some great videos, such beautiful country.

I really enjoyed watching your videos every day we are getting ready to start harvest in Indiana I must be crazy like you I run equipment for the people that rent our land then come in and watch you half the evening Not boring to me, wonderful life

I thoroughly enjoyed watching doing down time waiting on crops to ready. The scenery makes me want to travel but I won't, just keep up with you and Jim. God bless till next time.

Thanks so much for taking us with you! I really hope that the people who don't know what it takes to put food on America's tables will watch and understand.

hi Tracy. i do hope that you are enjoying being back home and having no equipment to clean. I really loved your harvest videos this year. The first day that you were going out to the combines, the look on your face was like a little girl at Christmas time. Jim also seemed more relaxed this year too. Would have liked to see more motorcycle videos. Thanks again for taking us with you.

Awesome Videos!!! Thank you

Thankyou Tracy, its been a fabulous trip. I live in the Uk but truly feel I've done a road trip with you and Jim, bless you both. 👍

Thanks for another year of harvesting videos! 😊

Thanks for sharing your incredible journey, travels, and stories! God bless!

thank you tracy for all your videos i will be looking for more videos have a safe harvest

Loved your videos and view of the countryside of USA, from a grain farmer in Australia :)

Glad you got home safely… so good to see you and Jim making the best of what’s put at you… as I said in earlier videos the good Lord willing I think it may be a blessing you sold your Combine at this time .. I believe the ease of stress in Jims ( and of course you also ) will add years to his life .. Though we haven’t met .. we Love you like family and hated to see the stress load last couple years.. Stay Safe Looking forward to next video update ❤

Thank you Tracy and Jim for taking us along. I am one that you are teaching and you can teach an old dog new tricks. Even at 64 I have learned I remember my dad and uncles talking about going north for short trips and harvesting broom corn as a child. Wish I would have listened more now it’s to late to hear about those stories. I know wheat harvest like you did is a long season and very big commitment. Thanks for the stories and scenery beautiful landscapes

Thank you for the work you do putting out videos. But in 1979 was the first year I went custom combing brings back some great memories thanks again

thanks for all the great content, please keep posting during winter, would love to know about your area, towns, land prices etc. thanks Allan

Thank you for your time and commitment to doing these videos we all enjoy them emmensley god bless you both and happy spider hunting.

Another enjoyable year of harvest videos i look forward to autumn harvest and hopefully Wheat harvest next year. All the best from the UK

Thank you Jim and Tracy,I will be waiting for your next post.

Morning Tracy, you have succeeded in getting your message out. I had texted you a couple of weeks ago saying that I to have custom harvested and your videos have brought back so many good memories. What I appreciate the most is you and Jim as you appear to be the salt of the earth. May the good Lord Bless and Keep the two of you.

Good people make hard work look easy Thank you

A job WELL DONE !!!

Its gotta feel good to know when you get home you dont have to turn around to make the second trip to go back to get more equipment.

Than u for all u do to see alot of country we wouldn't take the time to go see. Our harvest in southeast Iowa is about to start.Enjoy your rest.

It’s always so very nice to see you two go through different places and doing what you love to do. Great times 😊

Welcome back home. Things look better around your neck of the woods then l expected. Thanks for your videos l have enjoyed them. Looking forward to your fall harvest ones.

Hello from Ireland. I farm here in Co Waterford Ireland with my wife Sheila. We grow wheat, barley, and oats here in Ireland. We ran all our own equipment for many years. We now get all our work done by contract or custom word as you call it in the US. We have family in Oklalahoma and visit there every yeay. Enjoyed you daily reports. can identfy with the daily routine and the problems that crop up from time to time. Keep up the good work and best of luck with the fall harvest. John & Sheila O'Mahony

Thank you again for sharing your videos. Thank you again for showing the B1B lancer at Sac that's my son's first plane he put ordinance on he's retired from the Air Force after 20 years this summer The family when to bossier city Louisiana. For his retirement party.. " AMER1CA "

Well what a treat to follow your story - thanks so much for the videos, fabulous scenery, and very interesting especially for someone who yearns to get out from behind a desk and do something worthwhile !! Enjoy your break and look forward to your next adventures - especially a smile from Jim :) :)

Farming is long hours and a lot of work. Most farmers wouldn't want to do anything else. Almost 40 years ago I had a dairy, raised beef and horses. Hardly a day goes by that I don't miss my cows.

Thank you for taking us along on your adventure, our main harvest will be getting going here pretty quick. Really enjoy watching your videos. Good luck with your fall harvest, I'll catch up with yours after we finish ours. Thanks again Al

Come back to Montana any time you can. You did great videos of the wheat harvest and look forward to corn and beans.

👍👍you’re welcome and thanks for taking the time to make videos it’s a joy to watch I’ll be waiting for the next one 😀

thanks for the new video, we look forward to the fall harvest season coming soon, you and Jim take care, see ya tomorrow!!!!!!!!

Hate to see it come to an end. Always enjoy seeing the videos. Growing up on a farm let me go on harvest after years gone by for me. Looking forward to fall harvest. We did not do that. In the fall my dad planted wheat then harvested cotton. Winter time was taking care of cattle and then spring it all started over again. A farmers life is hard, but can be very rewarding. He did it for over 70 years, so he must have liked it.

Tracy I have watched all your videos and enjoyed them so much you always capture such great moments you and Jim have such a way of telling the story Thank you for hard work that you do to bring these videos to us

THANK YOU TRACY and JIM See how the good Lord provides for a "newly" retired hard working couple of harvest experts! My prayer is that your "latest" harvest family contacts you sooner-than-later about your plans for the next harvest season with them in your beloved MT. And at the rate they fed you, have you jumped on the scale yet? Just kidding-- --I know you both "worked" in off many times over! Thank you both for taking all of us along!

So glad you made it home safely. Thank you so much for sharing your harvesting adventures with us. Maybe you can catch your breath before corn & soybean harvest begins. Looking forward to the videos. God bless!😊❤

Thanks for taking us along on your trip to Mt. The farmer up there was so impressive with the size of the farm and the big crop they had . Take care and see you later.

You are spot on , the hard work you put together , thank you in 2023 , you are amazing , stay safe !

Im a retired farmer and would love to be in your situation the past weeks, what a adventure! completely enjoyed your great videos ! thank you so much!

Watched every video this summer and they were all splendid! Thanks for all that western landscape footage as well as the combines out in the field working. You and Jim are a great team and all the best on fall harvest! God Bless!!!

Thank you Tracy i really loved your videos I'm sure your in a mixed emotions but we're not spring chickens anymore it's time to slow down a little bit may God Bless Jim and your self 🙏🙏❤️ 💛💛💛💛💛

It was fun to see how you came home. It looked so familiar since I stopped by to visit with you last 4th of July. I have very pleasant memories of my visit on the way to Omaha. Have a safe fall harvest. Thanks for such an interesting travelogue. AFG

Your videos were so interesting the new kid on the block is ok if you like watching greasing combine and unloading with side shots of head liked yours cause you showed harvest and small town USA

As I've said many times before, Thank you Tracy, for all the wonderful and educational videos you have provided! Yes, I paused the video to read road signs, historical signs, and just anything that you paused on! I truly have known nothing about the harvesting of anything big but you have certainly peaked my interest, so until next year, rest, relax (if you can) and get ready for the holidays and then it will not be too long before you'll be in that combine again!

Thanks Tracey and Jim for sharing your summer adventure with us. Looking forward to your fall harvest videos.

Take some time off and enjoy Sept, like on your journey back.

Really enjoyed the videos of harvest this year. I’m sure it was a lot different for you . Hope you have a good fall harvest....

NOTHING HAS CHANGED, YOUR VIDEOS ARE ALWAYS SUPER TO WATCH OVER AND OVER AGAIN . AND THANK YOU WE TRULY ENJOY YOU JIM & TRACY------ LOVE YOU .

Hi Tracy, I've actually been following your family from clear back when Jenna started doing the All aboard harvest blog in the High Plains Journal. Back when you guys were running the CIH 2588. Watching your kids grow up and now you guys transitioning into semi retirement has been a great journey. The hard work you and Jim have put in over the years is something to be very proud of. Its nice to hear your backstory and family traditions of the harvesting lifestyle. I am glad everything worked out great this year your prayers were answered by God to not have to end it the way it was looking like it was going to. I recall watching the video of you guys stopping back off at your combine buyer's place (which isn't too far from me) and you went back to crawl into the machine. I know even as a guy what you were feeling. It was your life's work seemingly coming to an end. Guys feel it too, but don't show, it or we express it differently. It wasn't meant to end that way. You have too much experience and joy doing it. Hopefully working with Brett's family was a great fit and I hope that becomes a new tradition. What a great place to go on a vacation/work trip. WOW. Look forward to more fall harvest videos. Everything in central Kansas has or is burned up if its dryland so there won't be much in the way of fall harvest here so I guess I'll rely on your videos to remind me of what real fall crops look like.

you did a great job. looking forward for new videos.

Good videos. Scenery was great. Thank you

Harvest is a love of the heart and Biblical also a slice of Heaven brought down here for us to experience. God Bless and thank you. ❤

I will be back if you are back. Enjoyed aĺl.

I enjoyed your adventure Tracy and Jim!

Hey thanks for the great ride! Take care!

Thank you for taking all of us along as you can tell by all of are comments we all really enjoyed the daily updates 😊

Well done! You accomplished what you set out to do with the daily videos. We were unable to get out to Montana this summer due to a death in the family, so your time spent in Highwood, Big Sandy, and crossing parts of southeastern Montana, South Dakota and Nebraska on the return trip really helped us get over not being able to go this year. Hope we can roll West by next July! Take care.

Thank you. Hope to see you next year.

THANK YOU SO MUCH.

Thank you Tracy and Jim for a great road show.This has made me and my family feel real good about where we live. Yeah understand the transition,kick you feet up you really deserve it and Jim when he gets chance .Thanks!

Take care and injoy your time off

Welcome home. Enjoy the rest. Next year.

Do you know if you will be having cab cam when you work for Lee. I really enjoy that.

Thanks Tracey ! Yourself and Jim have given us a wonderful insight into harvesting throughout the States in recent years! Thanks so much from Bonnie Scotland

Very good Video 👍 👍

Tracy thank you for the videos that are very well done and sharing things that I know I will never be able to experience or see. Also your memories that you share from years ago bring back many memories back for me. It is great to see and hear Jim more involved in the videos. Thanks again and you and your future videos are so so welcome!

Good job telling your story!

It’s been fun, take care!

I’m sure many will say Thank You to you both for sharing. Things change over the years so even the savy of your viewers learn!!!

It was a great ride Tracy.

Hope you get to vacation on the same farm's next year

👍 God bless!

As a testament to showing everyone how harvest life goes, you make it look easy. Our harvest were long and usually difficult. Corn drying is easier now than it used to be. See you in a couple of weeks. John T.

Hope you can shoot some videos of bean harvest.

Thank youTracy for your videos.

Great job!

Thanks Tracy for the great summer!!! 😁

Glad you are home safe !

Thanks Tracy love your videos great work
