If you decide to use the scythe be sure that it is SHARP! It can be sharpened with a file, like you would a jacknife. Scything is not hard, it just takes practice. Easier than clipping or mowing tall... - brookdale on Barn Tour - Storage Side
Are barns in West Virginia built "looser" than more northern states? It seems like the the slats (siding?) on your barn have more space between them than the ones up north. I imagine it is because of ... - lavenderblue on Barn Tour - Storage Side
