Hard day

slim,

That young man is my hero. It's 1:30 PM right now. I just came into the house to cool down and get a drink. The temperature is in the high 90s, bright sun, and not a whisper of air. The heat index is above 100 degrees. I just baled and picked up 80 small square bales of grass hay and stacked them on the wagon. When I'm cooled down a bit, I'll go stack the bales in the loft of the barn.

I feel very much like young man right now.

Only about 82 here but with higher than normal humidity I'm thinking its time to sit in the shade. Not used to that here.

I've had days like that.

Cute picture thanks for sharing. I can remember those days of making hay in the mow temperature and humidity way up didn't need sleeping pills to sleep at night.
One time working 3rd shift milking and running the farm time and sleep were short. It was raining and I was raking for balage and I finally had it shut the tractor off and went over the side. That's where they found me curled up in the mud and rain coming down sound asleep I got a chewing out for that apparently when they thought something had happened instead of me taking a nap.
When I was in high school and dad was sick so mom had me getting up early so I wouldn't miss school. What she didn't know was I just go to school and fall asleep strange thing the teacher must have liked me keeping my mouth shut because I got on the honor roll.
Fun times back in the day.

There's something women like about a tractor man.

Looks like baby sister in the wagon just wore him out pulling her around.
