Last Sunday afternoon, I went to visit Ms. Charlsie. We’ve been having SUCH beautiful weather here, so we decided to sit out on her front porch for a while and watch the neighbors working in the hay field just across the dirt road.
I grew up in the city, but this city girl loves hay season!! Of course, I don’t have to actually work the hay, but there’s just something about the sight of newly baled hay sitting in a field and oh.my.gosh the SMELL of fresh cut hay that I just love. It’s one of the things I love about living in the country.
While I’ve seen hay being baled and hauled before, I was so intrigued and impressed with how efficient they were at it. I took a few pictures…
Soon, we’ll be enjoying the town streets decorated with hay, and pumpkins, and all things fall. I can’t wait.
What do you love about where you live?

That's a familiar scene! Why didn't they invent "big bales" before I left home!? :)
Now David told us the other day that you wouldn't help him in the hay. But you're right the smell of fresh cut hay is delightful!
What do I like about where I live? The mist rising off the lake on cool mornings. The sun coming up over the water. The serenity of it. blessings, marlene
Where I grew up, we had Mt. Nebo in our view from the back yard. It is beautiful. I grew up on a farm. We just had cows. Having all of those fields to run and play in was an awesome time for me.
Good Morning Jacquie!
Love your post! I grew up on a farm and I always enjoyed the hay! We didn't have to work harvesting it, but mostly played in the hay loft of the barn. The smell is heavenly! Now, I enjoy living two miles from the old home place and sitting on the back porch, listening to the birds and drinking in the peace and beauty.
Have a blessed Sunday!
Right now I love the rain hitting our metal roof. Such a delight to meet you today.
Blessings to you from Costa Rica,

One of my favorite sights is a huge rolling pasture with bales of hay sitting every few feet of each other....something so peaceful about that landscape!
