SNAPSHOT: Something to salvage

Patrick, left, and Harlan Prescott on Sunday pound nails out of boards pulled from a barn they are taking apart at the former Quimby dairy farm in Augusta. Father and son started disassembling the three story hay barn built in 1920 in mid-March and plan to sell the wood recovered from the structure. “We salvage everything, including the nails,” Harlan Prescott said.

SNAPSHOT: Horse power

Kathy Simmons cuts a garden plot Sunday at Sherrie and Jason Brann’s home in Sidney with a pair of Percheron that belong to her father, Pete Stratton. The team pulled a Syracuse Sulky Plow from the 1920s through an acre of soil with the Brann family and friends picking up stones that emerged in the furrow. Stratton said he plans to return and harrow the plot later.
