    1. The great team we have around us means that the work is shared.

      The "baler" worked 11pm till 5am
      the "raker" from 5am till 9am
      the "stacker" from 7am till 4pm
      and the "truck driver" 8am till 3pm.

      I might add though that the "baler" grabbed a few hours sleep before back up to do a second shift stacking from 10am till 3pm.

      And then this is repeated the next day... and the next...

    1. We have to knock off when the dew comes in to heavy, but now we have the steamer (the machine between the tractor and baler) we can start baling much earlier in the evening.

  8. Interesting---- The hay comes in here, the bales come out there. Just like with a horse! Seriously, another shot that makes the everyday sight seem so interesting.
