Thanks for your concern gcreekrch, but I found out that most all checks weigh the same no matter what the amount is for. If they had paid me in dollar bills that would be different though.
It was a great sale, a record breaker in fact for me. The steers were 50 pounds lighter than last year but I've heard that from about everyone that their calves were lighter than normal. 623# @ $147.85 and 561# @ $156.00. I would take that every time. I've been thinking about things since the sale and will put my thoughts in a different thread.
