Rusty, I like to see your bobwhite photos.
Betty, in Wisconsin I only saw rectangular hay bales, and they were much smaller than the ones in your photo. In Alberta I only see rolled hay bales, usually individual ones, not the long rows like those in your picture. One of the breweries here has a clever advertising use for the hay bales. They make them into beer cans by standing them on end and enclosing them in a copy of one of their beer can labels. They say they put them up in the farms where they are growing ingredients for the beer - barley I'd guess most of the time. Although they also make a wheat beer. I will try to get a picture of some examples. I usually see them as I'm driving by at highway speed, so have yet to stop and photograph any of them. Yes, Chris is enjoying the changes at school so far this year, thankfully. It was getting rough by the end of last year.
I didn't get a photo the other month for footwear, but saw these fun shoes recently. I am so shy about asking for permission to photograph strangers. These young girls, probably tweens, were next to a goat at the petting farm we were all looking at, so I pretended to be photographing the goat, but captured the shoes instead. I know it's OK because we were all out in public, so I don't really need permission, especially since I didn't even include their faces. But I always feel a little weird about photographing children I don't know, so I just don't do it unless the child is unrecognizable.
