I have a question, apologies if this has been asked before, but how did you get started in this business? did you start with hay or with mowing?

There is NO WAY it is a coincidence that someone named Cheatle worked for the company that makes Cheetos.

Have you been inside that house? What's the giant black thing on the roof? Is it glass?

Obviously it has to do with the time travel circuit...

Well, she worked for Pepsi, who makes Cheetos, so maybe she can go back to guarding Cheetos 😂

Yes. It was built by an extremely wealthy Podiatrist. He owned several offices in my area. The giant black thing is a staircase with a glass ceiling.

I owned a successful construction company and farmed hay on the side. Some of my construction clients had big chunks of land and I asked them if I could farm it. At first I made 10,000+ small squares per year. Then I bought a round baler & did both. Then I switched to all round bales, making over 2,500/year. Then I switched to large squares about 5-6 years ago.

did you start with hay or with mowing?

Both, but more field mowing at first. I had to switch to a faster baling system before I could take on large acreage.
