It's funny, because ironically, my fathers better half works for one of "those" kind of owners, although she is actually very nice and down to earth, the hay in their barns is museum quality !!! ( if that is a way to put it ) It's like night and day when going between our place and theirs, (we're kind of connected), their barns are kind of high end, nice living quarters, offices and other nicely finished rooms, whereas ours never seems to be short on cobwebs and things that need to be done when thar ain't no money to do em LOL ! Well, it is not that bad, but the contrast between what was commonplace for a stable like ours, and what some of the luxurious stables wealth has built is amazing. I think some, but not all of the later generations of horse people may have lost touch with the reality of things, there is not one person my fathers age or generation in that business who did not know what hard work was around a barn, including baling hay, some of these people have too much money and not enough common sense, yet they certainly did fine before there were moisture meters and nutrient analysis !
