Well, I keep asking myself all the time that I am doing second cut hay why do I bother. 1st was a challenge this year due to rain in the forecast most of the time, even though we didn't actually get much rain, so I didn't finish until mid August. Regrowth was slow especially after late first cut, but there was decent growth on some of the wetter ground. So Weds. last week I headed down the road two miles to the next field in the rotation, in order to abuse myself some more, because we had the first forecast of five good days this year. I planned to cut only the wetter half of this ten acre piece because the dry part didn't have enough growth to be worth while. Well, we had been getting some rain recently, and a little bit into the mowing the 96 horses were really laboring to pull the mower through the water. I expected moisture but not standing water. Long story short I could bale only the dryer three acres, and got a total of thirty four bales. figuring my equipment and transport time, my cost per bale comes out to $18.00

I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
