nother day ,nother dollar...  was my fathers morning greeting.

 however in this case .... it is another day, another load of hay to get in the barn...yesterday mark and matt managed to bring home a 24' hay elevator in a 18' trailer.... and then bud managed to make it work on 110.. which it happily did and we got one pile of hay into  the loft.  it replaced a mamouth pile of empty shavings bags---- i am not sure how much room is left for the dump trailer load which is waiting under a tarp in the parking pit.-- apparently the rain is to stop about 11:00. ----now if there are any strong souls in need of real exercise. we have some exercise to offer about noon.....

i remember.........you can buy hay by the bale--- great vaRIETY OF WEIGHTS....."NORMAL NOW.....40-50 POUND TWO STRANDS OF PLASTIC STRING  CURRENTELY BLUE AROUND HERE---- THEN THERE IS WIRE BALES.....75+++ POUNDS AND 2 STRANDS  OF THAT YELLOW TWINE OFTEN 30 TO 35 POUNDS.

WITH ALL SORTS OF COMPLICATIONS-- LIKE WEEDS.... MOISTURE....DUST.... MOLD... FUNNY SMELL

AND YOU FEED IT BY THE POUND-- A 1000 POUND HORSE NEEDS 20 POUNDS  OF HAY A DAY

 in lynnfield , i used to buy hay by the scale weight-- as they crossed the CANADIAN  border. - I BOUGHT FROM THE ONE TRUCK DRIVER ---"ANDRE".  FOR MANY YEARS.... NICE GUY.--- THEN HE GOT OLDEER AND HIRED HELP-- ONE DAY THE HELP BACKED THE TRAILER UP TO THE HAY DOOR-- AND I WENT UP TO OPEN IT WHILE HE REMOVED THE TARP..... HE HAD SOLD  OFF ALL THE MIDDLE BALES TO SOMEONE  ELSE AND  ALTHO IT LOOKED LIKE A FULL TRUCKLOAD.... IT WAS HOLLOW...  I CALLED ANDRE-- WHO ASKED IF THE TRUCK WAS IN MY WAY- BECAUSE HE WOULD BE DOWN TO UNLOAD IT  HIMSELF THE NEXT DAY-  THE. DRIVER WAS LAST SEEN WALKING DOWN MY DRIVEWAY---- IT WAS GOING TO BE A LONG WALK TO ANY TRANSPORTATION....... BUT MY GUESS IS HE HAD A POCKET FULL OF ANDRE'S MONEY.

A DISHONEST PERSON IS A DISHONEST PERSON WHO CAN "JUSTIFY" ALMOST ANY SCHEME. IT IS AMAZING...  BUT I HAVE RUN. INTO SOME PEOPLE LIKE THAT.....  TO BE AVOIDED AT ALL COST.
