Looks like we grew up the same way. My grandparents on both sides of the family were farmers. I hated picking up hat bales each year after baling, but I loved the money a 12 yr old could make!
Thankfully, my family has always done round bales. So my chore as a 12 year old was driving the truck and trailer around the field while my grandpa loaded the bales onto the trailer with the tractor. Definitely much more fun than picking up bales! haha
Glad to know there are some other people here with similar experiences. Thanks for your comment.
Back when I was a kid we didn't have round bales. We walked uphill in the snow, both ways, without shoes and the wind at our face in order to pick up our square bales ourselves. 😋
Of course. haha I suppose I should relish in my privilege. :)
