We had a good run of hay today. The market generally was steady to weaker. The grass sold better than the alfalfa today. Bedding was weaker. We had a nice size buyer crowd that was looking for bargains. Monday and Thursday auctions at 12:30 continue through the month of April.

There was an older couple was at McDonald’s splitting a meal to share. Gary wondered if they couldn’t afford to purchase two meals, so he offered to buy them another meal. The man said no, we share everything. Awhile later an employee went to their table and asked if everything was ok after noticing the woman still wasn’t eating... she said oh no, we share everything. I’m waiting for the teeth!
