Idaho

Brian knows his hay. He says the green hay is probably alfalfa; dry, but still green. Brian loaded hay for a nickel a bale. He loaded enough hay to buy his first car with hay bale nickels. Karen Mulholland, farm girl, says the beautiful golden bales are straw, the stems leftover after combining grain. Heck, I thought it was all just hay.
