2014 Hay Season

[foreman Etexas]

The first break was caused by the net wrap,it and the hay balled up on roller,the last belt broke at splice. I get just a couple off on one side but it's not bad usually do pretty good at getting them level.That's first question he asked if I was over sizing them,I measured them they are under 60,around 58". But those thin year windrow I hugged the outside a lot to try get uniform bales .

I got around the house laid down,wife is happy. Started on the 25acres also

Got all 52 acres cut. Finished cutting about sunset yesterday evening.

Rake and baler all hooked up and ready to go. (I hope)

The humidity is down in the 30's here today. Can't believe it, but I'm loving it. :thumbsup: The hay is curing very fast. What I cut Thursday evening is ready to bale.

We just came in and ate a bite. Going to roll 'em up now.

I got about 15acres laid down last night and went ahead and ted it around 5,should be ready tomorrow when get off at 3:30 been a heck of a year,still have 60acres to go. The cattle pasture are looking really good also, haven't even had to move them. Other cattle pasture looking good enough could even cut and bale but going to hold out,in case turns no rain.

Finished rolling it up this evening. 80 rolls this time. That's 25 days since the last cutting. (got 75 the first go round) 155 YTD. Not bad, considering it's only the second week of July. Last year, my total production was 125 rolls, so I've already beat that. :thumbsup:

Now, if we can just get some rain.

May the Lord Bless us all with enough rain.
