Today I am baling our third cut of hay. I am baling the hay alone again and everything went good until I ran out of wire in the baler.

We live in southeastern Illinois on a 41 acres homestead. We just finished building our log cabin overlooking our pond. We are trying to grow our own food and raise livestock. Follow us on our journey living the rural life and developing our property and becoming more self sufficient.

I miss all the good work, that farming was for me.

Hay! That's a lotta work! I think I've already told my story about having a boss a long time ago, who used to say: "It ain't easy. But it sure is hard."

[@MR.MUFFIIN]

Working hard for your dream. I applaud you sir.

[@phillydeangelo2850]

We are super proud of what your family has completed and built on your property. Very impressed. Little baffled how your pulling this off, if your still working your job. Lol. But we wanted your community to know how you have helped us to build ours. All your videos and your information you gave was extremely helpful. Keep it up.

Just an observation Evan, you can probably fill your wagon and drop it, finish baling take the tractor and the baller back to the hewse grab your truck luck up the wagon, and throw the twenty or so. You have left over in the bed.

That thing sure does make some nice bales!

[@bigDH123]

For this being your first year putting up hay, you are doing a great job. That's a lot of work by yourself running back and forth stacking bales. Great video.

Hi....... Evan nice to see you good job, thank you for sharing your video homestead chicken farmer garden 👋 bye 👋 bye 👋 bye 👋 👕🐔🐓🐥🐕🐖🐈🌱🐐🎥👍👍👍

My dad and his uncle, along with the kids, would bale hay. Using our Oliver 77 and a NH baler, we could put up 1000 bales a day. We used a six or seven person crew of adults and kids. Once the boys were about 12, they would be operating the tractors.

In a previous video you talked about the Hood on your Tractor.

Nice pond

After bale slide is polished up you might want to get some liqiud spray wax and give it a coat will prevent some oxidation over winter storage

[@roblong6518]

Good job! Try smearing some grease on the slides of the transport/ field position swing. Anyway you put up small bales by yourself is nothing but work! LOL 👍

[@williambryan2804]

Instead of spreading the broken bale out and driving really slow you can throw the hay into the baler. It can go on top of the metal bars that push the hay down.

[@ChicagoDoItYourself]

Normally I HATE travelogs, but looking over your place is a joy... and watching you jump.up and down off that trailer and stack those bales like a teenager.... well..... if you weren't in pretty good shape

[@robfl07]

My OCD thanks you for fixing the “short board” on the back of the hay wagon! 😂

I have a new name for you...Macgyver...from the TV show. Had a trick for everything. Think outside the box
