Hay!!!

12/21/2012

8 Comments

 
I rode to the pet store and asked how much a bale of hay cost.

"$8.09."

"Awesome, I'll take one!"

Okay, where are you parked?

"The bike out front."

"....Do you have a way to carry it?..."

"Yep!"

I go out to meet them at my bike. It's being carried on a cart. The lady looks at my Mundo and says "I'll need to get some help."

The thing is huge! I finally ask the right question. "How much does that weigh?"

"Sixty pounds." (Yikes! I hadn't anticipated it to be that big...)

What i actually say: "Oh. My kids weigh more than that."

The Peanut Shell is under that. Two straps, two bungee nets, and a slow ride home. We made it!

The chickens are thrilled! I'm going to need to do this more often!

You are going to love having all this fun! Getting a bale of hay in a car isn't exciting. On a bike? It's a flippin' party!!!

(p.s. Your bike is AWESOME!!!)

I'm sure Texas would have lots of loading opportunities! I'm one step closer to creating the Mundo-coop!
