And while we're at it

Here is a piccy of a stolen tree and a piccy of our kitchen.  

We're hording straw - sometime in the next few weeks we have to completely muck out and clean down the stables in preparation for kidding - and then lay a good depth of clean straw.

We pay a premium for small bales - but it's a lot easier to handle.  We buy large round bales when we can use them straight away or when we have the space to unbale and store them - but we can't store round bales.
