We're getting there. We've only got 1 field left that we're baling. I tried raking it tonight, but with so many trees and such I got most of it done and just gave up. It should still get pretty close by the time we get to it tomorrow as we gotta finish chopping our oats & peas first. We did 4 1/2 loads today but then I got into the thicker stuff and it was making pudding by the rotor in the bagger so I quit.
After we get all of ours wrapped up, my brother and I have to road our equipment 13 miles to the other side of Appleton near Fox Valley Lutheran to do a horse hay job. We're doing it on a 1/3-2/3 split, and of that I'm gonna take probably 3/4 of our share to sell and my brother gets the other quarter. Probably hang onto it until February/March, then start advertising it.
Also have 1 small 2 acre or so chunk we're finally able to get to that we never got planted in corn. Probably gonna try finding a little sudan or something to stick in there. Gotta fill in the wet spot in a corn field too. Should have enough left over seed to finish it off. It'll still be very green when chopping the field this fall, but in the long run it shouldn't affect it too much because they'll just be a small % of the rows the width of most of the field.
Here's a pic of the last of our 1st crop. It's what's left of Shade Today's tree farm near Darboy. The owner approached us last year if we wanted to seed it down w/out any rent cost just to keep it in the ag tax bracket, instead of commercial because it's for sale right now, but not moving too fast. Still a few (lots) of trees here & there, and a few holes where they spaded one out and never filled in the holes.... Gotta pay attention when working in here. Last year I broke a spindle on our 1855 while working it up to plant.

Today's Featured Article - Restoration Story: Fordson Major - by Anthony West. George bought his Fordson Major from a an implement sale about 18 years ago for £200.00 (UK).
