Winter at Graber Hill

We had a unfortunate funeral viewing one afternoon before we picked up the kids.
It left us with a few minutes before they were done so we stopped by the see
the progress on the latest DIY farm project.
I love seeing their creations.
And I love DIY - they just do it on a much bigger scale!!!


They are adding and arm to the top of the excavator bucket
to make it grab large piles of things.
There is a name for that sort of thing.  A grapple.
See, there is something to learn everywhere.





We, ahem, talked all things about loads to be hauled to market.
Where to take them for the best price but with best place to haul.
Could they fit in some extra loads for neighbors - they custom haul their beans and corn
since they are Amish and cannot get them to market with their equipment.  
And weather cause there is manure to spread in prep for planting season,
but the ground has to be frozen to allow the equipment to move over it.
I enjoy all the stuff that lines the walls, stuff you save because it might be helpful
for a project in the future.

And then we have then welding cart. It speaks for itself. Tee Hee -
missing a tire it hops along to it's next job.  And they say it has been like this for years.
