101 Uses for Baling Twine

As I went to grab a piece of baling twine the other day to do a quick repair - on my shoelace - I started thinking about the unlimited uses for baling twine.  Off the top of my head I can think of many times I have used baling twine for quick fix.  I've used it to stand in for a broken blanket strap countless times.  I've used it to temporarily repair a fence board.  One time at a show when I forgot some of my stall set-up stuff I used baling twine to hang the buckets.  I've used it to tie stuff down in the bed of the truck. We've used it in the garden to tie plants to stakes.  I use it every year to tie up all of the winter blankets and sheets into neat stacks for storage.  I tied a gate shut with it once when the chain broke.  

If you want to be able to MacGyver your way out of almost any situation if you have baling twine, duct tape and a pocket knife you can probably solve just about any problem.  Given that the uses for baling twine are so unlimited I do wonder why we are still overrun with the stuff!  I swear I think it breeds and reproduces. 

Pondering the many uses for baling twine is just one example of the random things that I sometimes think about on any given day.  I'm sure I'm not the only one who immediately thinks of baling twine when I have to do an unexpected repair of some sort!
