Just wanted to see if you were paying attention. LOL
I had to make a quick run to southwest Oklahoma yesterday and I saw these hay bales in a field on my way down. The light wasn't right on the way there but on my way back it was better so I stopped and took a couple of photos. I was surprised they were already cutting the fields. Of course they probably ought to get it while they can, it was 101 yesterday while I was there.
we're waiting to get ours done, but the smaller fields always have to wait until the crews are done w/ the large ones. but i just love that sight!
ReplyDeleteLike that pic!
ReplyDeleteI've noticed a lot of haying going on around here also.
Seems like everybody did pretty good on this first cutting!
Suppose to cool down next week. I need to get away before it really gets Hot!
Just don't know!
I talked to Mark yesterday morning during my drive down and they are in Camp Doris for all of this week. You ought to head down and spend a few days.
DeleteThat would be nice. Be fun to see that crew again!
DeleteAlso would be nice to climb Elk Mtn. and take in those
long views again!
If you miss them this week he said they will be back the week after Memorial Day, arriving the Monday that is Memorial Day after the crowds have gone.
DeleteThanks, Hope to make a trip soon!
DeleteWhat?
ReplyDeleteLOL! Thanks Randy. I didn't think anybody got my humor.
DeleteNice find, your picture looks good in B&W too! 101° that's kind of warm for beginning of May even down your way isn't it?
ReplyDeleteThere is a bit of haying goes on here on Vancouver Island... They cut and roll it just the same as your picture then at some point the whole roll gets sealed into a large white plastic bag. Looks like a whole field full of great big marshmallows!
Yes Paul, 101 this early is a little strange but I cool front came in last night that dropped the temps by about 25 degrees.
DeleteA lot of the ranchers here in Kansas use the "giant marshmellow" way of wrapping the hay too. I would think that it would rot being sealed up like that but apparently not.
