Hey that's my car
But, did he get the mole? No body, no credit!
Good thing he got rid if it. Moles can totally ruin a yard if not dealt with.
lol We all know somebody like that... I happen to know 2. Unfortunately one is related to me... Fortunately they don't know each other... God help us if they did!

My brother is a cook & he said whenever someone orders a steak well done the cooks all mourn a perfectly good cut of steak being ruined & make jokes about what sort of a-hole wants their steak well-done. LOL. Although, I do know some elderly friends wanted their steaks cooked more because they grew up in times where overcooking it was the best way to ensure it didn't contain bacteria or something. Or at least, that was what they believed.
I need to get this for my friend. He can use it a lot around his fiance & his ex.

Square bales, haven't seen those in years. Brings back memories...
I can tell you that it isn't the PTO, or the pliers, or the heat.
But 3,000 of those square bales put into the barn in one summer will either make a man out of you or a cripple.
Still trying to figure out which one I am.
Can you guess why I have a lifelong hunger for beef?
Yep spending days in a 120 degree barn will seperate the weak from the strong.
Indeed! If one of us brothers would pass out, another brother would pour water on them.
(fortunately this was before heat-stroke was invented)
I do remember my mom recruiting guys from the high-school football team.
She promised the coach they would get a workout, and get paid.
They were awesome hunks and worked great... for about an hour.
Their faces were bright red and they were huffing "I need a break!!!"
We'll take a break at lunch.
Obviously they had never burned 3,000 calories in 4 hours.
The ones that made it, mom fed them lunch with us. They swore it was the best food they had ever eaten and talked about it for months. An hour break so nobody gets cramps and back to slinging 50# bales until dark. Ah, good times. <NOT!>
Sorry I got off topic. I'll find some funny stuff.
Funny talkin about football players. I don't recall one that made it a full day. Not many even tried at all.
When I was in high school I had never lifted weights. Our gym class on semester was all working out in the weight room for the football team. The coaches and football players couldn't figure out why I was keeping up or surpassing the players. I'd just ask if any of them could do the work out for 8-14 hours a day? Then came the strange looks.
. And yeah I'm still a smart a$$ at times

I seem to remember they came in either 55lb or 70lb bales. I remember walking by, snagging them with a hay hook, tilting them up on your hip, then throwing them up to your friend stacking them on the flatbed. Never been so tired and dirty at the end of a day as I was after doing that. The thing was, it wasn't even my ranch. I just went to help my friends on theirs. For free. Well, I did get a really good dinner fixed for me at the end of the day!

Back in the day, we used to go and help our uncle with bailing hay. All I can remember is the itchy forearms! I was more of a wagon helper and arranged/stacked the bails on the trailer. Still, it was not a whole lot of fun.........memories
Alfalfa hay was 70-80 lbs if it was not cured 100%.
Mixed grass hay was 40-50 lbs, dried , cured good.
We ran 80 horses at one time.
Myself and 2 other guys put up 10,000 square bales a year, plus 500 round bales.
We only had extra help stacking it in the barns.
Uuuuggghhh..
