Today the quality was much lower on both alfalfa and grass. The prices reflect the lower quality as most of the grass was CRP. The bedding was steady.

Ashley was cruising east of Rock Valley at 60 mph when she spotted a police cruiser coming in the distance. She revved it up to 70. Looking back, she noted another police had joined the *chase*. So she pushed it up to 80. A 3rd law enforcement vehicle joined. Seeing JJ’s ahead, she coasted into a parking spot, jumped out & headed into the restroom. When she emerged, the 3 officers were waiting outside of the door. She smiled and said, “I’m guessing you guys never thought I’d make it either, but I did!”
