When I was in my teens, I baled hay all summer long. I used to have to round up some of my school friends to come work. I always worked the wagon, because the work was steady, I liked the sunshine, and I hated the dust in the barn.

Ther was a black snake or Gardner snake in a bale on at least every wagon. I used to take a hay hook and pull the bale on the wagon, roll it once before stacking it. Of course when the wagon got full, you couldn't do this. I used to get the #$%#$ scared out of me. The owner who ran the baler used to laugh his tail off. Of course I would carefully set that bale up top for the barn guys!

I was always amazed how well a lot of snakes made it through the baler. Thanks for reminding me of that. This may be revisionest history, but always remember fondly the feeling of satisfaction at the end of a day of bailing.

take Care
