Absolutely beautiful!

A few years ago I was square baling on the side to make ends meet. I did everything myself from cutting to loading and unloading trailers. A bunch of wrenching on old equipment too. I met a few Hispanic horse guys through my ad on CL that agreed to buy any hay I had left. I picked up a 60 acre Bermuda pasture at the end of the season, so I gave the guys a call during the week. They showed up with a bunch of friends and trailers on Saturday morning. I had about a 40 acre headstart on them but they were on a roll. By the time I finished up there wasn't a bale on the ground!

Great pics, brings back memories. I used to put up 10,000 bales a year for many years. Never thought to take pictures, why take a picture of something so normal, common, it was just a part of life. Wish I had some pics. now.
