Today the auction was very small. Not much of a test but seems like the hay sold stronger on a very limited test. Monday the 28th is our last Monday auction, starting in May we will only have Thursday auctions.

Today the market was mostly steady. The buyers are looking for the very good hay. They do not have much interest in the average and poorer hay. Bedding sold steady.
Auctions every Monday and Thursday at 12:30 through this month.

In safety meeting at work they asked me what steps I’d take in a fire. Apparently “really big and fast ones” was the wrong answer.
