Life's Mysteries

Another mystery to solve....

Six weeks ago nearby farmers harvested their fields of hay, bundled their hay into rectangles the size of small cottages, stacked these bundles like they were building condos - and still those towers sit untouched.

Is this the ultimate in building green?  Are the farmers waiting for the bundles of hay to petrify so the bundles can be hollowed out, then doors and windows added?

Perhaps the farmers are waiting for the hay to turn so crispy dry that the bundles spontaneously ignite and provide the heat for a record setting marshmallow toasting event.

When (if) the hay disappears how will I ever know what use it was put to?  It's a question that will linger in my mind till the end of my days.
