Today, we are watching hay dry. Actually, we decided to walk through the fields again because we need to find all the rocks and limbs and stuff before the bailer goes through. We did get a few rocks and limbs, but there were a few rocks that we didn’t pick up. The one below will [...]
We have hay cut! We implemented Plan C today. We started with the easy part. This was around the north edge of the new farm. Doesn’t this look wonderful? We don’t have rain in the forecast until Sunday. By then, even this waterway will be lovely bales in my barn. The second part of Plan [...]
I have to have hay to feed my animals this winter. We planted a buffer strip around most of the corn field, we have the waterways, and we want to make hay on one or two of the back hills. We have this underway, but we have the issue of how to get through the [...]

Yesterday was father’s day. It’s a time when we should get together and spend some quality time with our father. Well, Dad and I spent several hours bonding as we began gutting the trailer house.
