___________________________________________________
Today we were lucky and had approximately ½ inch of rain and sprinkles during the sale. We love rain but it does help make a buyer’s market. Today we saw the market trader unevenly lower. All hay sold was 2024 hay. We expect new hay next week. Auctions every Thursday at 12:30 pm.

So, I saw an old dude with a fishing rod outside my local bar fishing in a puddle. He looked so cold! I said to him, “come in for a drink and get warm.” As we sipped our double whiskeys, I thought I would humor him. I asked him, “how many have you caught today?” He replied, “you’re the 8th!”
