Farmer: "a person who is outstanding in their field"

For the past month Justin has been working long days on the farm.  There's lots to be done after the hay is cut!  I put together a little video to give you a peak into what it's like baling in southern Arizona.  First all the swathing has to be done, then the hay has to dry for a few days before they can rake and bale it.

(Joshua has been going to work with Justin and raking in the mornings.)

After all the hay is baled it's time to pick the bales up out of the field.


Loading the bales on the truck to take back to the shed.

All stacked in the shed, ready to sell.

I love this picture!  The fluffy white clouds are just perfect!

Uncle Mike would LOVE to see this posting, Kaitlyn. He and Eric baled a field of tall grass this weekend so proudly. Justin does things on a MUCH larger scale!!!
