Carrion Beetle

Perfect weather for drying hay. The farmers all over the county are cutting hay, raking hay, baling hay, and generally moving hay around. My neighbor cut my fields yesterday and tonight they are already dotted w/ large round bales. He asked if he should move the bales before we set off fireworks. "But", he said, "If one of those bales does ignite from sparks, it will be quite a display all by itself." He must have a bumper crop this year, if he'd even consider sacrificing a bale.
