Haying season officially started for us on Saturday. My son has cut a couple of fields and today we'll rake the first one and, Lord willing, get it baled. Haying season always brings it's challenges and makes me cringe. A lot of prayer going on this time of year.
Sunday John cut one of our best fields. He says that Dad forgot to tell him about the sink hole. :)
He sure knows about it now. God is good and with just one pull from our bigger tractor, this one was out and on the field again.
It's a good year for hay. It's growing thick and tall.

That is one nasty sink hole! Glad it didn't give you all more trouble than it did. Yep, getting the hay from field to barn is always a tense time. It can be a dirty, sticky, itchy, sweltering job . . . but I truly miss those hard, but oh-so-satisfying, days of haying back in Illinois farm country. I'm crossing my fingers for you in getting this first crop in.

Mama Pea,
So far only a bearing gone in the baler and he ran out of fuel in the middle of the field. All in all, not a bad start.
