I an two other friends were hay haulers for that area we lived in. This was Wellsville Kansas and I lived on a farm there. We were pulled out of school on-day cause the farmer called for us. Word was heavy rain was coming in and he needed the hay out of the field and this hay we got 2 Cents a bale each for the work. This was done with hook in hand and a flat bed trailer and an old truck. Lots of work and sweat and he had a big big field to do. The hay was taken to the big ole barn and was sent up a conveyor to the second story of barn. Was hot up there and we worked all day and into the late morning doing this Hay. Then at sunrise here come the sun and not a dang cloud in the whole sky. Never did rain that day! Shesssss! Then I had a big laugh cause one of my hay friends was scared of snakes. Black were common in the area.. lol so this farmer wanted hay in the barn and some into a small shed next to a feed area. Two of us in shed and one out on trailer to pass threw this regular size door like in house. Square bales there were all the time handling. Just as we were about done a black snake came out of the bale the other guy was handling. lol lol He ripped the door clear off the shed getting out from there. lol Kind of scared me at first cause I did not know what was going on. lol The farmer was not real happy about his door being torn off. So when done with all the hay. We had to go get some wood and new hinges to fix that door. Came out of our pocket on cost to. shess lol But even today I can remember it like it was yesterday.
