Can you see the round bales?


On the hill in the distance beyond the alfalfa field in back of my house are about one hundred 250-300 lb. plastic-wrapped round hay bales. They look like mini-marshmallows from over here. Hmm, you might say - I remember that the Boucher's don't do bales. Well, we don't. We recently purchased some adjacent land (that's a whole 'nother story) which had hay on it, so we asked someone to harvest it and keep the majority of the bales for themselves, leaving us 25 or so to deal with. What are we going to do with them? We don't know. But, hey, we've "Got Bales!"

The alfalfa is getting long again -- second cut coming soon.
