Just got home tonight from the Iowa Beef expo wont make it tomorrow cause of the weather coming in, saw alot of good cattle as usual, the show was running well again,
all the people involved always do a good job, most of the breed cattle were today, Angus heifers were not done yet.  Market heifers were really strong. Good luck to all
tomorrow as it might be a challenging day.

I tell you what each and every kid there should be proud, I cannot believe how competitive that show has become, today I did not see what I call a total and complete
standout, the classes were really deep and really good, lots and lots of people are catching on, and doing well I commend the families, I have been there my whole life
and I think so far its been a pretty even steven show this year, I did think the market heifers were really deep, Im not sure about the breeding heifers I had a bit of
harder time there today but I was not on that side of the arena.

I pulled it, it was my post, some of the stuff was personal between minnimoo and myself, just did not think everyone needed to know all that, I voiced my opinion on some stuff and did not want
to offend anyone, I try hard not to do that about show calves Im personally talking about, If there is something you wanted to know just let me know Id be glad to talk to you about it.

I went on to talk about a steer that was in one of the classes so I did not want anyone to think I was complaining, so I thought it was best to pull what I said-
other wise if there is something special you wanna talk about just pm me
