I can remember watching a very small Fordson Major working in the field the other side of Granny's hedge. I'd probably find it in a museum now! I could almost smell that newly cut grass and am sure the heifers enjoy the sun on their backs as much as we do. I love the way the Holstein girls are looking at the camera.Heatherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06826501916623305535noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-280582018791422638.post-24482694835602306382009-06-01T11:58:13.457-07:002009-06-01T11:58:13.457-07:00...of sitting on top of the hay of the last wain a......of sitting on top of the hay of the last wain and singing foldsongs all the way home...Lovely documentation of the noisier but more modern process.

Now I am talking about a covering for a harvested root crop here [from the Middle Dutch 'klamp' meaning heap]. I suspect, Weaver, that your clamp is rather different.Caroline Gillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05203454486693014969noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-280582018791422638.post-69015862240854422542009-06-01T10:42:00.198-07:002009-06-01T10:42:00.198-07:00I love the photo of the happy heifers.

You probably said, but I have read several blogs about bringing in the hay so I forgot.Leeniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17655189620056032790noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-280582018791422638.post-8502567530634422372009-06-01T10:31:03.580-07:002009-06-01T10:31:03.580-07:00At least the cows have a lazy day!
