Well, the bales Lou will have are from this year's harvest. I spoke with 
another farmer who said the same thing---he'll have straw bales in July, 
just let him know when we need them and he'd haul them out.

The bales we're looking for are from last year and would be in a barn or 
shed (preferably). I just posted to someone else that I spoke with yet 
another farmer maybe twenty minutes ago who said no one in their area (and 
it's a big area) planted wheat last year because the price was so poor, it 
wasn't worth it. Those who did have 3-string bales have already used them 
since there were so few.
