Take one down and toss it around, 93 bales of hay on the wall...
We now have enough hay to make it for a couple of months, but still need to acquire about 700 or more additional bales to get through the winter. Still no word from our regular supplier so we called a nearby neighbor who has sold us hay before. He's very nice, and less than a mile away so he can bring a haywagon over using his tractor for motive power.
He brought us a load tonight. The hay is well cured and not moldy but I think it may be last year's. And his price is considerably higher than what we paid last year. I expect increases in anything, but this is a big jump. So we're still looking. And meanwhile the first 94 bales (The first 100 are the hard ones) are all neatly stacked and ready to use.
