Out West

Ninety Six head of cattle headed west yesterday. 
Joe had them in the barn lot ready to go by Wednesday afternoon. 
He was very worried about a break out.  He double and triple checked the gates and added more staples to the fence.  
I was petty sure they were not planning an escape but you never know.  
The help started rolling in at 7:30 Thursday morning.  I had already done my job, written the health papers, so I headed off to work.  I didn't see the loading and weighing but Joe said everything went like clockwork.  Today we got the conformation that they made it to Nebraska is good shape and they all walked off the trailer.  Now Joe has just a little less to have to feed in the mornings.

Well done. Glad to hear that Joe's work load is a bit lighter.
