We are currently getting into the shipping season with the delivery of our calves going North and West to some very happy customers. It is starting to get dry again around the ranch and monitoring of the pasture is steadily increasing due to no rainfall. Our hay production is in full swing and will be putting up about 1,500 rolls and 2,000 large square bales for the winter. We will have hay for sale staring the first week in November until the supply has disappeared. The cattle that were bred back this past winter and spring are steadily calving and will be sold around the first of the year.
My prediction is that it will be another dry and cold winter going into 2011 and that it will once again test our strength and ability to survive in a business that is never easy but always rewarding.
