GBR Enjoyed Hosting Olympics and Farmers work hard making hay while sun shines
These farmers have been working through the night 24x? (Olympians for years), to collect the hay before rains again after few days of sun. Very important for livestock and the price to yield . Oh, and I left the electric power cables in on purpose. The infrastructure very important and for farmers and rural homes. (Joey another bland sky  , here comes the rain again... )

Still blue sky and 3 digit weather here. First time I saw hay rolled like this was in Europe (train trip between France and Italy) somewhere - I thought it a bit strange; how is it stacked??? Here, it's usually in rectangular bales...all I'd ever seen. Great perspective in B4. joey _________________ "Art is a blade of grass ... and in a moment I will eat it." |

Joey, they wrap them black plastic afterwards with efficient machine. Then they then stay semi covered for winter. Its not just for the cattle, ruminants but for horses too, which understand, my friend close to them. Three digits degrees, very. How can you sleep? For me travel around China with 98% humidity and 38c really started to do me in. I had to go to McD for the aircon to cool down. |
