| Spending Thanksgiving at my Daughters. Many people from both sides of her family will be there along with a cattle hauler or two maybe. Most Thanksgiving days one or two semi loads of baby calves come in. Most paces will not take calves on Thanksgiving day and they can not be held over. They normally off load before dinner and take care of them after dinner. |

hope you got to just watch and relax for once. and speaking of thanksgiving - take some thanks for yourself for all your sage guidance on here. it would be hard to describe how much us neophytes appreciate it. ------------- 3 Ford 8N's I loan to neighbors, but the '52CA, '41B and little B1 I do not. |

Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family, Dick L. Bet those truckers are thankful to have a stopover to take care of those little ones and themselves also. And thank you for all of your good advice on this forum. ------------- Just an old country boy saved by the grace of God. |

Not me! I set and visited with my 101 young mother, Grand kids and got hugs from Great grand kids. They can handle that job all by themselves. They are hard workers. Keeps them off the streets and outa bars.
