Thanks to all of you
for your interest in our program. Please continue to pray for moisture.
There was a great deal of conversation among people before our sale began
about pasture conditions and the drought in general. Many commented that
if it would rain, they would need a bull or two, but if it didn’t, they
wouldn’t need a bull at all…If it does rain this spring, there will be
sales better than ours, and that will be good for all of us in the
business. We are thankful for the day we had.
