Rollin’ in the Hay

It happened! This morning they came to roll the hay! And I was home! I got to see it happen! Okay,  that is a lot of exclamation marks but I am excited!!

We’ve watched it grow over the last few months.

We love watching the doggies play in it.

What we missed last year was the harvest process in full. A couple of weeks ago they came and cut the hay.

Then yesterday they came and manipulated it into rows.

This morning I was downstairs when Bob called out to me that the hay baler was here. Even though it was only a couple of minutes before I got outside they had already rolled  two bales.

How cool is this?!?!?

The vineyard trades the hay with a local farmer for manure which will be delivered  in January or February.
