I would sell off the rolling stock as you said. You need 1 tractor with cab that you like to drive to feed cows and do a little haying if you want to do it yourself.
My dad sold off all his equipment and I mean ALL. bought 1 140 hp tractor kept 20 cows and keeps some heifers to sell and a few bulls.
rents out all his land and gets hay in return.
buys a little grain and keeps them real tame.
he said it gives him a reason to get up every morning to go feed the cows.
after 5-7 years of that it was to much work to calve so he gets my brother(you could get somebody else) to keep his cows all winter and calves them out for him.
in return he feeds a few heifers for him.
the best you can do is not be sentimentally attached to equipment. Get rid of scrap and mow or pasture that area and make it look good. My dad takes pride now in his nice yard where before he had so much junk it looked like a wreckers yard. planted apple and other fruit trees as he feels he can not has to
I have seen a few people that have done it like this and they seem to do better health wise than those that quit all in one or those who work till they drop. Grand kids means a lot to some and nothing to others so that also helps some people

Today's Featured Article - An Old-Time Tractor Demonstration - by Kim Pratt. Sam was born in rural Kansas in 1926. His dad was a hard-working farmer and the children worked hard everyday to help ends meet. In the rural area he grew up in, the highlight of the week was Saturday when many people took a break from their work to go to town. It was on one such Saturday in the early 1940's when Sam was 16 years old that he ended up in Dennison, Kansas to watch a demonstration of a new tractor being put on by a local dealer. It was an Allis-Chalmers tractor dealership, ... [Read Article]
