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.

Peter rakes the snow off of our woodcut roof after we got another foot of snow overnight. He is wearing his snowshoes and standing on a 4 foot snowbank from the last time he raked the roof.
Yesterday between rain storms, someone brought the disk harrow, Mark had bought, and this Minneapolis Moline Rake/Tedder. It never looked like it had seen a grease gun in years, the balls in all of the grease zerks were rusted in place but we were able to break them open, there must be 30 or more of them on the thing. We put a couple springs in place of some bailing wire on one lever so we could adjust it. Scraped off some hardened grease around the gears, so we could adjust the gears into forward or reverse, as we wanted it to go. We then started to pull it around to see how it would work, making adjustments as we needed to. It will be handy to stir the hay next year to help it dry better. This year I tried raking the hay into small windrows after 1 day to try and help it to dry but even in a small windrow it is still too thick to dry very well.
