my own hay, with my own crew, and the co- workers own gear.
So after Wednesday’s rain we will cut again.
This was the developing hay field of quite light grass and it still took days to dry. Next we get into the heavy stuff. But there is a good deal of satisfaction in bringing the hay in on our own dollar.
I have guests all this week back to back so the pressure is on. But my mantra is foot down and keep adjusting my speed up. Short term pressure is fine. And yesterday by 8 am I had milked the cow, fed the pigs, raked 2 acres of hay, stripped the Airbnb and was only 30 minutes late for work arriving at 8am.
So this morning I am allowed to move a little slower!
Wish I could get into the garden though. The vegetable garden has no plants in it yet. They are all grown on John’s plant table waiting for me.
Time to put the foot down now.

Yay 🙆♀️ Hay 🤗
Sometimes, you just have to be a leadfoot, and this is one of those times. Just so you can keep that engine at full revs. Great news about the first hay crop, lots of fingers crossed for the next, for a chance to get the food plants in, for more girls than boys amongst the ducklings, for…. Well, you more than most of us make your own luck through sheer hard work. More lead to your pedal foot, Miss C.
I too don’t know how you do all this. It is remarkable.
