Back in School



I thought maybe it was time to look at somethings other than hay bales.

Mysterious Hay Bales

Nate and I live in a busy suburb, but right on the corner of our busy street sit two large bales of hay. They've sat there for months and months - almost a whole year - and no one has ever come to get them. They've been rained on, snowed on, and baked by the hot sun. Here they are:

And then one morning out of the blue, the two forlorn hay bales were ... joined by two other hay bales.


We have never seen a single soul working that tiny plot of land. I think we may live next to a ghostly hay baler.

Old vs. New: look what damage a year can do to a perfectly beautiful bale of hay.



























Perhaps the strangest thing is that it seems everyone around here thinks that it's normal to have hay bales in the middle of the city. It's almost as if they don't notice them at all. Then again ... maybe Nate and I are the only ones who can actually see these mysterious hay bales.
