A few farmers started stacking small squares in the barn that way back in the 70's but I don't know why.

Why? What is the advantage?

I can't believe they haven't got the guy yet.

Great pictures though of just how wooded the area is.

We always stacked on edge in the hay mows, when using sisal twine the mice chewed on less then when it was stacked flat.

Whatever happened to having a town meeting, deputizing about a 100 local men and beating the bushes to flush him out….. let me guess……lawyers.

In E. Texas recently a county prisoner faked the need for medical attention to get a trip to the ER and use it to escape. He took off running at the first chance. Out ran the two deputies with him. The SO, PD and Game Wardens quickly surrounded him in the area.

They caught him down in a creek bed behind the hospital. The Sheriff told the news 'yeah he made us drag him out of there'. He was dragged through the woods because he refused to walk.

I think it keeps the bottom bale from absorbing excess moisture. The top bale still gets laid strings up

It’s becoming a joke at this point. Yes, it’s very wooded/semi rural. 100 years ago there was more meadows. Many have been taken out of farmland and returned back to woods with the death of smaller PA farms.

Sounds like they caught the POS

That little guy was impressive. 14 days on the lam, tying up millions of dollars of resources, and closing all schools. It looks like the Boarder Patrol's most elite tactical force was used to finally get the guy.

Surprised he came out alive.

Yeah, it would have been simple and saved a lot of money and time if.....

Dogs got him.
What everyone seems to be saying is that stealing the gun took the pressure to get him up to a higher level, since he now became armed and dangerous
