Haying Season

 Round bales seem to be the most popular shape in my area this year

Fields look so clean and neat when the hay has just been cut and made into bales. Cedar is the most popular wood for building fences.


I am linking to Good Fences HERE.

  6. Cedar is a strong, durable wood!!! Lasting a long, long time without rotting.

    I LOVE rolled hay. And I also love the fragrance of freshly mowed.

  7. Very nice pictures - fence in foreground, blue sky, and green fields. Takes awhile to find the right scene at the right time to get pix like those.

  17. Lots of round bales out this way too. Seems to be the thing alright. Cedar is best for fences--it lasts the longest.

    I could hear the chain saws when the logging was going on. rowr rowr started every morning at 6AM. And then the big machines when they were loading the trucks.
    Bob and i have walked up in that area so it is sad to see the trees go. They do replant so that is good. MB

  24. Such awesome shots! These pictures are really timeless, they could have been taken in almost any decade. Yes, it is all round here, too. It must be better equipment and faster. Only once have I seen the old square kind.
