This is one of my favorite childhood memories - not the actual baling because that was hot and itchy, but when it is all in and you can stand back and admire the loft full of hay.Benitahttp://www.basicallybenita.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1906387276996008333.post-1483868767160395712013-08-20T21:06:50.689-04:002013-08-20T21:06:50.689-04:00I'm a city girl but remember visiting the farm...I'm a city girl but remember visiting the farm where my grandfather grew up during haying season. I remember riding in the tractor and helping make dinner for all the hot, hungry, tired men and women who had been out cutting all day. I remember how good it all smelled and how satisfied my great uncle was. And I remember hiding in the barn up on top of all that hay and thinking it was the best place in the world. Never been in a barn in the winter, but it sounds pretty great. Happy Christmas in August! <br /><br />Love the gratuitous shot. She's so cute :) Spinnerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10425193396990441270noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1906387276996008333.post-85266669901934075162013-08-20T17:12:48.164-04:002013-08-20T17:12:48.164-04:00Mark has been struggling w/ haying. First cutting ...Mark has been struggling w/ haying. First cutting was so late b/c of all the rain and the tractor breaking. Lots of it is just mulch or bedding!<br /><br />Second cutting is all done and looks good. Hopefully there will be time for third cutting and maybe it will be decent. It has been unseasonably cool for the past 2 weeks.<br /><br />Hope all is well.<br />KristinKristin Nicholashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09038900681076035087noreply@blogger.com
