Hopper, Dump O/O's & Drivers

yeah it was so bad last night i changed the channel in the 3rd. qtr. it just hurt too much to watch.

 

im in middle tn. here with rain forecast everyday this week. we still need about two weeks of dry weather to finish cutting hay. at this rate its going to be thanksgiving too before we get done. then it will be time to feed it.are you around emporia? i thought that i read that,might have been someone else though. i used to get out to ks. hauling cattle pretty regularly.

 

Showering here this morning. We're on hold but the boss called and said we're going just a little later start. I hate this cause we're gonna start cutting later and later. The bosses have a guide deal so they want to be thru by duck season. It's nerve wracking to pull out of these narrow field culverts onto gravel roads with water standing on them so you can't use the edge at night. They tell me to just run in my old tracks. I guess I can use that if I drop one off. I guess it can't all be gravy.

 

must have been someone else close to emporia. there were 3 or 4 farmers around ramona & tampa,north of eldorado that we went to with feeders. we also went on out to garden city with yearlings. i enjoyed running out thru there but we quit the cattle hauling back in dec. we went from 2 loads a week down to 1 a month. an outfit out of iowa hauling hogs down here came in & undercut us. just running flats now.

 

have you guy's heard anything about Bruce Oakley regional? $1.12. a mile loaded and empty isent to bad. with all they include.
