I got the 200 hooked to the baler last night, about 10:00 this morning I got started baling the hay I cut yesterday. About 95° out there. Dry dusty grass, my eyes are full of dust. I got 6 big bales off the 3 acres closest to the house. Again this dam baler would not cut the twine on the right side. But am done baling till next week or so. Gotta do the What Cheer Flea mkt, leaving on Wed 8-4-21. Will cut more after that. I can assure you guys there will be a pair of new twine knives here before I cut anymore dang hay. For Sh__it's and giggles, I called Bumgaars and asked for big round baler twine. No body knew what I was talking about. That's standard for this Bumgaars. Coop has some $50.00 for a box of 2 balls. One heck of a waste of money to feed to filthy old goats. I got at least 5 grease zerks that wouldn't take grease. Hope it cools off so I can replace them. My dang left arm is mostly useless, hope #2 grandson can help with that. Of course these are the ones that are up under and over, behind stuff so I can barely reach them to grease them. Anyway I got done about 4:00, came in and washed up, now the old gal wants to drag me to Menard's. It could be worse, she could want to drag me to Walmart. i looked up the tempture in Death Valley today, 114° today and flash flood warning out for tomorrow. As I said it could a been worse. And I didn't find A single fresh rattlesnake today. I did have a young Eagle pick up some sorta snake outta the field and fly off with it about 3:00 this afternoon.

Tom you had quite a day! It's getting harder to find supplies and parts as Covid and shutdowns plus paying people not to work has everything fouled up! I have baled up many critters including skunks. Glad we don't have many rattle snakes here!
