I was intrigued with the haying and how it is accomplished. First, it is cut and then left for a few days to dry somewhat. Then, another machine comes along and makes windrows of it. I never did see how square bales and round bales are made, but I was fascinated to see the various methods used to hold the round bales together - netting and also a plastic fabric secured with string of some sort. I had a wonderful visit! This trip was the first that I had made to Floyd in the summertime. I was intrigued with the haying and how it is accomplished.
