Teamwork

My brother came over yesterday to lend a hand getting hay out of the field.  We put together an efficient team to get the work done.  It took all afternoon, but it was very efficient and we flew through the process.  Sharon ran two trucks connected to trailers that could carry about a dozen bales at a time.  She dropped one off one truck and trailer for unloading took another back out to the field to be loaded.  Tim was running a skidloader out in the field picking up bales and putting them on trailers and I would unload the trailers around the paddock or in the hoop building.  While we were moving bales, George was running the tractor to rake the remaining hay in the field so that the hay was ready to bale once we had the bales picked up.  It was awesome.  Next year we'll have almost double the alfalfa and that will really add to the time spent in moving bales.  And if Sharon thinks I complain about the accuracy NOAA weather now, wait until we have 100ac of alfalfa to manage!
