Many of the tarps I own have one or more holes in them. None of the tarps are large enough. I was able to find and buy one tarp large enough to cover 28 of the 29 bales. The tarp is 30 by 50 feet. Or maybe a bit larger. I had measured the bales at 32 by 53 ft. It is nice to have a single tarp as water could get in where smaller tarps meet. The tarp set me back $119.
The weather forecast has a good chance of rain starting tomorrow and lasting through the weekend. Isolated scattered rain shower for today usually means I don't get rain. Not today. I was able to get the tarp over the bales just before the rain came.
Then I was able to get the tarp tied down on the corners just before the wind picked up. I tied the tarp down in many spots in case the wind gets to howling.

Still working on getting a tractor to move the hay bales this Winter.
