    It IS the season we were fortunate to get 2500 small squares in the mow between the rains. We still have about 12 feet of haylage in the silo to try to get empty. It was kind of neat to see your 4555 featured on Big Tractor Power cutting. I recognized that right away. Best wishes getting it all done with minimal rain.
