    1. It has only just dried out enough to start mowing. The outlook is no rain and hot for the next 10 days so we are making the most of that outlook.

  5. I can smell it--- Suddenly I'm 13 and riding a horse through the field. Maybe I just need a nap....

  6. I love the lush green but am curious as to the type of grass and why it has been mown in alternate rows so cleanly.
    It's not the usual hay making.

    1. This is lucerne (aka alfalfa). It is perennial crop that we mow about 6-7 times per season for both hay and silage. Our mower cuts 4.5m wide and leaves the windrow in the centre of that cut in 1m wide swathe. Each row that you see is a run with the mower.

    2. You learn something new every day. I hadn't realised that lucerne was perennial. I love the neatness of it all.

  7. I love looking down rows of anything so this really appeals to me.
