Prepping for rain

We are supposed to get a quarter inch of rain tomorrow, so needed to do something to protect the hay that we just bought.

So we climb a ladder that’s barely long enough and stand on the edge of an unstable mow.

And voilà!

"I only remember the very first part of the book where he described the man of steel and velvet and I remember the deep chord that phrase struck. I remember the image I had of a hand of living steel wearing a velvet glove, a hand that could crush or caress, strike a killing blow or wipe away tears, lift mountains or cradle an infant. The rest of the book was an afterthought." From an essay about Aubrey Andelin's "Man of Steel and Velvet".
