Today was useless as far as putting bread on our table was concerned.....Yesterday (Sunday) evening I got a call from my neighbour.......Long story! Our preacher left our church to go live with another church and in the interim period the church members use the time to do improvements to the preacher's house. The House had been fully modernised about 6 years ago so it needed nothing but the last preacher was (fat and) lazy when it came to taking care of the grounds around 'his' home....always used the excuse he was leaving some for the wildlife!. So the members decided to tidy up his lawns...They pulled some trees and the front hedge and erected a nice wooden fence. One member then rotavated the rough area. This was lying in a kind of a mess all worked down fine but uneven....So, in church yesterday morning it was announced that we needed volunteers to rake it all level. I was summoned yesterday evening to grade and level the area in preparation for the raking team this evening. Had to delay all my plans for today, as we have thunderstorms forecast for tomorrow. Spent all morning grading and levelling and the afternoon cutting back the hedgerow around the perimeter, and this evening I had to go and hand rake the whole thing....plenty of people there with rakes but couldn't use them! Guess it is a freebe as I cannot really bill the church? Sam

The year was about 1967 and my father found a good used Ford 601 tractor to use on the farm instead of "Bob", our old mule. Now my grandfather had had this mule since the mid 40's and he was getting some age on him. S
