I won't forget my experience about 2 years ago this summer. My favorite dog, Mickey (had a bunch of old nick names for the man like mickey moo-mow). He was my buddy and a shoulder to lean on when times were hard. Remember when my mom left my dad, I was there with him, we not sat under that tree in the front yard together. Lost him to cancer 2 years ago. He went in for surgery, first one came out ok, then the tumor came back, went in for surgery again, liver failed through the night. I remember that morning before my dad took him in and I was getting on the bus, gave him a kiss on his wet nose and told him I would see him later, but never did. He was supposed to come home the next morning, but they wanted to keep him for another day. The night before he was supposed to come home, the vet tried to call, but she never got through. She was trying to tell us to come and see our Mickey that night because she was afraid he wouldn't make it through the night. Never got that phone call until the next morning when my dad checked his voice mail. Called her back and she told us that he had gone to a better place. Boy, how I miss the old man. The one thing that keeps me going is the good memories I had with him and all the other 3 dogs we have. No dog will ever replace a boys first dog, but just remember, he will be going to a better place. You will think you are not doing what is best, but what you are doing is the best thing avalible for the old man. Hope you get through your struggle, it's a tough one, but just say your prayers to him and your old buddy will hear them. Hurst

I’ve noticed a few questions in the comment section that could pertain to hydraulic cylinders so I thought we could take a short look at this real workhorse of the circuit. Cylinders are the reason for the hydraulic circuit. They take the fluid power delivered from the pump and magically change it into mechanical power. There are many types of cylinders that one might run across on a farm scenario. Each one could take a chapter in
