How far do you travel to your livestock sales barn? Can you take stick the night before? I am very fortunate to have the only livestock sales barn within probably 75 mile radius of my farm, only 2-3 miles away. I often, no nearly always take stick to the sales barn the night before. They start receiving around 4-5 pm , and receive stock all through the night. Large tractor trailer loads can roll in from a great distance and need to be unloaded well before sale time so the stick can drink relax and be processed for sale. The mornings are like you say, crazy . There are a half dozen shoots to unload at, some dedicated to sheep, goats and calves, others for large stock like cattle and horses. Saturday morning you will see every sort of method of hauling stock you can imagine. I have seen sheep and goats arriving in mini vans, or crates mounted on flat bed trailers. Farmers pulling livestock trailers with tractors, pickup/trailer combinations, pickups with racks, straight trucks all the way to pot trailers. A trip to the sale barn can be entertaining. There are also venders outside selling foul , tools , produce , you name it.

Amana Colonies served as a respite where we ate a family style lunch that sustained us with more food than could reasonably fit into our ample physiques. The show at Ankeny
