I headed out with Kel and Luke Nagge to a bison farm (they call them buffalo over here). The cows and calves were being fed. The cows are beautiful big animals and the calves are beautiful! As the calves are quite young the cows are protective so I hopped ainto the tractor with the manager to feed a couple of round bales. Bison are such old looking creatures, all of them have a beard that runs from under their chin to under their brisket and they seem so knowledgeable. Luke and Kel thought I was being romantic but I thought they were amazing.
Lunch was a quick stop at Denny's - but both Kel and I stayed away from the maple flavoured sundae with bacon topping - yes BACON AND ICE CREAM!
I then headed to the new Viterra Grain Handling facility. It is only a year old and is a major point for grain distribution from the cropping areas in the north. It is a $24 million dollar facility - Stay tuned, more updates coming soon!
