With the great help of my neighbors, we got my hay in on Sunday. Being Father's day, I got to do what I wanted- and there is not much I'd rather be doing that working my fields with antique farm machinery! My neighbor cut the hay last week. I raked it with a New Holland rake and a 1950 John Deere AR. Then, I made a few square bales with his New Holland baler, again pulled by the AR. He baled the rest as round bales. Boy that old AR is a sweet machine! What a great relaxing sound. I took the kids and even the wife for a ride on a few passes with the rake. They all loved it. When pulling the baler, you can tell it is really working the tractor, and it sounds like its gonna stall out, but it just keeps chugging. Hopefully my JD B's will be running by the time we do this next year and I can use my own tractors. Since my little farm is just for fun, and I spend my days in an office, the opportunity to get out in the sun and do actual farm work on the weekends is a welcome recreation for me. I'm sure that if I had to do it to make a living, it would be a different story!
