We had an Allis-Chalmers little round baler when I was little. There was a hay catcher that would lift the bale up and over and onto a hay wagon with someone fast and strong (my dad) to stack them and take them to the barn where the hay cradle (aka the spider) put them up in the hay mow. We kids would straighten them into rows for the hay catcher to grab into them. Since then, it's been all square balers with automatic kickers. Stan has used the neighbors round balers before, so he has some experience in baling (and fixing). I'm assuming that he's going to be putting these up to sell, but then I'm not real caught up on his thinking processes lately, so who knows? I also think this means no haylage, but again...
Our nice day decided to rain earlier than predicted (surprise!) and it just feels chilly and damp. So much for my plans for tomorrow.
