Energizer Bunny?

Farmers are like the "Energizer Bunny". They keep going and going until the job is done.

I didn't get a chance to take a picture of the equipment used to pick up the hay because most of that process happened after dark. Kirk & I wake up a number of times during the night for reasons unknown. One time was around 2:00 am. The farmer was still out there loading his hay. It was all gone in the morning.

I also compare them to Firemen. They wait and when called upon they go, go and go. Actually, farmers have many other jobs during the waiting period just in case Mother Nature doesn't co-operate. My feeling, Farmers job is rough.

I salute all the Farmers and anyone dealing with the land/water and the uncertainty of the weather.
