Today, October 17, 2016, just might be the nastiest day of weather that we have seen in this part of the world all year. To start with, we are extremely dry. When you go months without rain, and when it has rained in the past 4 months, we were measuring
2 pickups that need an oil change. 2 drivers that need some rest. One goat sale weekend that is OVER!! YES!!! Thanks to all that helped this weekend. Duke worked like a champ. Parli and Hayden are always great. Julie takes care of business. Huge Thanks to Jason Spence
