Journey to Denton & Equipment Discussion

the farm sites all over everywhere trying to find a hay Balor a hay rake and a hay bind for cutting hay now I haven't cut hay ever in my life this is all new to me but it seems to me that it doesn't make any sense for me to continue mowing my grass down down into the ground it doesn't make any sense just bowing it down and and calling it good we don't have any livestock yet so I've got to do something with this grass uh handy making equipment is expensive uh if I were to buy new equipment we'd probably be looking at 40,000 bucks uh not including the tractor so I found a used John Deer hay Balor and a used hay rake and we are driving down to uh Denton North Carolina which is about 70 miles away so I want to talk to you about the expense of this stuff so we're paying somewhere in the neighborhood of $8,000 for all this uh equipment that we're getting today and basically it's just a hay rake and a hay uh Bor it's a round Balor uh where we're going to go with square bales square bales sell a little bit better and they make a little bit more money but I just don't have the labor force to pick up the square baales so we're going to store our round bales on the farm and we'll sell them and we'll use them for uh uh IR not irrigation we'll use them for uh controlling areas to try to wash out as we Reed all this land that we're clearing uh this morning I uh went and checked on the timber guys that are cutting trees right now for our new fields and they're doing well they're about to finish up on the first 60 acre track over on our uh the side that we live on the farm so I apologize about this thing being bumpy I'm in a 3/4 ton Dodge truck and it bounces so you're uh you're going down the highway with me on a bounty truck so anyhow we're going to go down here I've already gone down and checked out the hay balers made sure everything is okay uh made sure the equipment looks pretty good got a long drive uh I want to talk to you a little bit about the stressors of uh of being on a farm and Mrs Stony Ridge is over here beside me uh she's along for the ride I know you guys want to see more of Mrs Stony Ridge but she's a little bit on the camera sh uh side uh what can I say so I want to talk to you guys about some of the stressors of being on the farm here uh the stressors of uh living a life that's different than everybody else is we don't live in a uh mcmansion quote unquote we don't live in a giant house we don't uh we don't spend money on ridiculous things we don't go…
