This is my brother, raking hay on the old family farm. He's still using the same tractor that has gone around those fields for the last 50 years.
Yesterday, I raked a great many leaves into a great big pile. And then we jumped in it. And buried ourselves in it. And lay down in it to look at the trees against the sky. And then raked it up again.
5-year-old grandson Noah wanted to come back with his mom, DIL Steph, from preschool and rake some leaves at my place. He was disappointed that there weren't any in the garage (which had been full of them) to clean out -- his mother had done such a thorough job of cleaning it out.
A double bow hayrake I made from green ash with cleft and drawn bows, stronger than a bow made from a branch.
