Finally started into hay as well. It was a little later than I wanted, but work has to come first. It was kinda thin for a new seeding and the 404 exceeded expectations on the haybine. At least had it all on wagons before the rain shower came through.

I would agree, I have one and it is fun to plink with. However, I did take note of the Henry version and it would be nice to have a more traditional looking version.

Did a little bush hogging over the weekend at the firehouse. It gave the 706 a little bit of a work out in the thicker stuff.

Made a little hay yesterday in the "excessive" heat with the 706.

Cleaned up after the hay burners. The little 404 is being kept busy here lately.

Hauled some firewood.

Here is my 2004 FatBoy. I took it for a run to the post office this morning, however it needs a bath after being in the pole barn all winter.

Grew up with calling it a hay mow here. The mows were on the ends up the barn and the dry floors were in between. Our current bank barn does have a loft over the one dry floor. So is it an overhang or forebay on a bank barn?

I think I'd tend to agree. I'd like to add one to the collection some day.

I don't think I've ever seen them before either. I did grab a picture after coming out of the barn stacking hay.

I had a nest get built between a couple small bales. I pulled it apart to get to it and convince them to live elsewhere. I came back a day or so later, and something had removed all the hive pods. Better whatever that was than me!

I mowed the field at the firehouse to get ready for our annual festival fundraiser in a little over two weeks.

Moved some hay burner excrement from one stock pile to another.

Cleaned out the one hay mow so I could put this year's hay away. Used the 404 to run the baler to clean up all the loose stuff. I inherited quite a pile to clean up.

I had to swap the 706 onto the round baler. It didn't work too bad. The little 424 helped clean them all up.
