Finished up 1st cutting...

Thought you might like to see a few pictures of how we do hay around here! 

Ben drove this tractor pulling the chopper and a dump truck...
Then the dump trucks are driven from the field to the bunk and dumped off....
the hay is then pushed up into a pile and  packed down
Elli even got a little ride!
After we took all the hay off we then had to cover the pile with plastic.  The plastic is put on the pile to keep the oxygen and rain out.  It helps keep the haylage from molding!  We hold down the plastic with tires... I guess I will have to post a picture of that later.  I didn't get one on my camera yet.....  Blessing~
