Where I am they don't do haystacks anymore, it's all bales. Pretty cool seeing an actual haystack! I always walk the same path as well, sometimes I complain about it though because to get home we have to go over the hill but I do love seeing the changes on the path day by day.
Where I'm from (the flatlands of Hungary) they didn't have any haystacks anymore either, just bales. I didn't see a live haystack until we moved to Breb. I'm so glad I could spark at least a tad bit of wonder in you too for the haystacks, and if you ever come to Breb, we would be happy to show them to you up close.
I know all about having to walk up the hill both ways to get anywhere, on rocky dirt roads, yet I don't know how steep your hill is compared to ours. It can be a fascinating thing to walk the same way all the time, though it can also get boring - if you don't search for the details. Thank you for your lovely comment, Sophie!
I've never seen an actual haystack in person, only bales, stacked and solo, and hay rolled up for future reference as silage. Hopefully, I'll never need to try to find the proverbial needle in one.
I frequently walk the same trails and lanes where I live, but depending on the season, weather, and time of day, they are not always the same. Even just heading in the opposite direction gives one a different perspective...
Thank you so much for your comment, Kevin! Exactly, I find walking the opposite direction on a trail or road gives a you completely different perspective. And walking on a path in summer is obviously so different from strolling the same way in winter, sometimes here it's almost unrecognizable from the snow.
But smaller changes than the change of the seasons can only be noticed walking (not so much driving) and it's so nice to know someone who walks a lot, like us. For very many people I know hardly ever go anywhere on foot.
I hope I never have to look for the needle in the haystack, either!!
