Bales of the Evening

 

Hot off the memory card……..these photos were taken 30 minutes ago, at around 7:45 p.m.  We were blessed with a sunny, breezy afternoon and evening, though at noontime the skies were somewhat overcast.  At that time, Husband checked the weather forecast on the internet---it said there was a 20% chance of showers this afternoon.  He sat there for a few minutes, pondering over what course to take……rake a portion of the hay, or just let it lie.  It would be better to leave it alone if rain was coming.  But, then he decided to go ahead with raking, anyway…….and, as you can see, the gamble paid off. 

Rarely does it happen that hay can be baled in this late in the day.  Usually, moisture from the evening dew settles in, making the hay too damp to be baled.

Betsy and I simply watched and listened to the hustle and bustle of the tractors…..

  Then I suddenly remembered…….supper needs fixing!  See ya later!
