I saw a number of these trucks on the highway and wondered what they hauled. Then I saw one loaded, but I wasn't quick enough to take a picture.
Can you guess what this special flatbed might carry?

It only carries two items at a time.
The blades for the wind turbines that "grow" all over the West. Two blades are loaded tip to base and extend the length of the flatbed. They are very long.

I can understand why someone needs this much hay (or is it alfalfa). I have never seen so many horses while traveling the West - there are hundreds, maybe thousands in pastures and corrals along the way. When I asked someone what the horses are used for I was told most of them are never ridden, the owners just enjoy having them.

Yes, it is alfalfa hay. My horse, who has been on vacation for most of his life, eats it twice a day. The bigger bales that you see on the truck are probably going to dairies to be fed to milk cows.
Skittles and I are semi-retired. I keep threatening to see if her saddle still fits. I guess she could be called a pasture ornament.
