Sale Day
Hello, today is sale day for the 2005 Red Gelvig beef calves. I got up early, went and had breakfast with the guys and 6:30 and went off the round up the cows and separate off the babies. They will weight about 600 lbs. And to the Wishek Livestock Market I went. Gotta collect the money you know. And the calves brought great money. Between $1.49 a lb to $1.15 a lb. We sold 54, so the banker will be happy. I try to up load a picture so you can see my old man at the sales barn ( we was pretty intense). My man is usually sick for 2 days ahead of time -the guy just can't handle stress. I rolled my eyes back one time when he thought I wasn't holding the end gate right. He said WHAT- WHAT. I just had to walk away before I gigged at him. He didn't like that either!! He has no sense of humor on sale days.

Excellent! I love to hear about the ol'man suffering a little. The pic from you new camera is really good, could have gotten just a little more of his head though. We are all sick this weekend so movies and naps is the extent of our excitement here.
Rumor has it that the fellow watching the cattle at the sale is not Ron -isn't he a little greyer?
I am sure that "Sliver" will be disappointed to hear that you rounded up cattle without him. But I am sure he will get over it. He is probably coming home with us for deer hunting in a couple weeks.
