Opa says that this wire on Great Grandma’s property in CO, is very old! It might be over a hundred years old (but I don’t remember). It is slightly rusty, but Opa still takes some for projects when he visits. If it was Indiana, it would not even be a pile of rust!
A long time ago, before they started using twine to wrap bails of hay, they used wire. They just draped it over a post and then left it for the cows to have a back scratcher.
Love the picture! It’s probably only about 60-70 years old. 🙂
