2018-09-18, Tuesday, cut grass for hay in the east bahia field. Cut most of west bahia field, then finished cutting it on Wednesday. Watching weather, it may be problematic. Wednesday forecast 20% chance for next several days.
2018-09-20, Thursday, Jeffrey came home from work early. I raked and he baled in the east bahia field. We obtained 21 bales and got them loaded into the hay barn. I reversed the hay rake, which caused it to just fluff and turn over the hay. Hay was so thick in the west bahia field so that bottom layers near the ground were not drying. Flipped it all over to help it dry.
2018-09-21, Friday, started raking and baling mid morning as soon as the dew dried. About halfway through, we got a drenching thunderstorm.
But still, the hay we rolled up before it started pouring was good. Just over 20 bales. We lined them up in the alleyway just south of the east bahia field and plan to use them first as we start feeding hay.
