Patriotic Hay

They call this patriotic hay in SE Ohio.  Made on the 4th of July.
Just really, really glad to have it finished, and did not get rained on.
We have 25 large bales, which should be plenty this year unless
we have constant deep snow cover like last winter.

This weekend was perfect - sunny and low humidity, highs in the upper 70s and
low 80s.  Perfect weather for making hay, and boy, were farmers out in force, doing
just that!   Everyone had hay down, and were tedding, raking or baling.

We call this making your 1st and 2nd cutting all at once.   :^)
