[QUOTE="Fire Sweep Ranch, post: 1509020, member: 18809"] We got up early this morning to go pick up some hay out of the field ($3.50 a bale out of the field). The guy is an elder man, likely in his 70's, and his wife is frail. We usually just drive over and pick up, then pay him as we are driving out of the field. This morning, as we were finishing, the guy pulls out in the field with his small tractor and a small utility trailer. His wife was driving the tractor and he was slowly putting bales on the trailer. We finished getting out 130, and pulled up to the drive to strap them down. My kids asked if they could help the gentlemen pick up his hay while we strapped down the load. They filled his trailer (50 bales), then proceeded to back him into his barn and help him offload and store it in his barn. Hubby and I were long done, so we just sat in the shade and watched. We don't know this guy, and I was very proud that my kids took their own initiative to offer help to the couple. He had at least another 100 bales out there to pick up and put away, and I know he appreciated the help he got!
