| Title |
Haymaking. |
| |
| Description |
My father would take the rake, and he'd rake a row and we would, when we were small, we would lap the hay after him. Just shake the, take a grain of hay, lift a grain of hay up in your arm, shake it and then lift it and put one arm under it and roll it round your arm and set it down just in a way that there was a nice smooth coat on it. And if there didn't come a windy night that lap would keep it's shape and turn the water. In another few days, if there came a windy while of a day you would get it into a ruck and so on. It was a great way of winning hay.
