Hay Day!

It's that time of year again.  Every September we purchase over 6 tons of hay to keep our horses well fed during the long Montana winters.  This year it was an easy task to accomplish because it's the first year we had feeder bales delivered.

Usually, we loaded small square 40-60 pound bales by hand, stacked them high on our pick up truck, and drove them over 15 miles back to the corral where we then unloaded each one and tried to figure out how to stack them so they would not fall over.  Mishaps often occurred, and it took several days, and numerous trips to collect, unload, and secure the hay from the weather and all the wildlife who tried to steal it.
