Hay for Winter

Now that we know what a winter feeding is like, we've started stocking up on hay.  My friend Steve hooked me up on a good deal for hay, two dollars a bale for a second cutting.  You can't beat that.

Last year, the Midwest drought caused prices to really jump out here.  Suddenly it was affordable to haul hay from Tennessee to Texas, so a lot of guys put their fields under contract to farms in Texas and are selling their whole crop to them.

 That's good for Texas but not so good for us.  Anyway, here we are, stockpiling hay for the winter.
