Sure looks like a very large productive valley. Around here we have minimal flat bottom land. The Interstate highways I90 and I88 and railroad consume most of our Mohawk Valley and Schoharie Valley. Looks like a good old stand of hay. Is it 2nd or 3rd.cut.

Looks like you have masterd posting pics now. Love looking at them always good to see what other people do. Looks a bit better hay weather over there than in Australia. Trying to make barley and oats hay being winter days are so short and not much heat and when its near ready to bale we seem to cope a shower or to. Averaging about 14 days to get it in but not whingeing that its raind on as this is the 1st decent winter season we have had in 6 years

Nice pictures
Everytime I see a tractor like yours with those axles sticking out I can"t help but think about the chariot race in Ben Hur. LOL

Interesting pictures to enjoy. What is the pitchfork used for? Will that hay dry in the windrow or do you need spread it out? How long does it take to dry in the windrow?
