... on a positive note, both cuttings of Hay are in the barn!



I bet we are one of the few farms in the area who has two cuttings of hay off their fields and in their barn -- without any mulch hay!

Kim did a great job timing the weather. There have been very, very few windows to put hay in this summer. As I wrote when we did the first cut, you need to have a few days of dry weather to have the hay dry out enough to bale safely and put in the barn. We got a very light rain on the second cut and then had to race to let it dry out enough before Tropical Storm Danny came this last week.

This morning we put the last two wagon loads in ... we had to speed them in to Kim's barn on Friday afternoon when it started to rain. The second cut looks great!!!

Here is a great picuture Krissy took with all the hay cut and on the ground before we baled it.
