(Brighton, IL USA) Three friends sit on a bale of straw during an annual fall bonfire and hayride. Many rural US residents host annual outdoor fall parties that generally include a large outdoor fire, some sort of food that can be cooked over the fire, beer and a ride on a straw filled farm wagon pulled by a tractor Sometimes partygoers in the wagon will stop at rural mailboxes and fill them full of straw from the wagon.
