So first off, most of you know about the cattle/hay situation we are in. And some of you may remember we got into honey bees. Well I have to say the hard work paid off. We may have taken a hit when we sold the calves, we did take a hit, and we took a hit when we sold 1/2 of the herd. Well the honey bees did not bad. We got a cheque that would make up for the losses of the calves. I know it would have been better to get good cattle prices and good honey prices, but you take what you can get. Now after the holidays I have to put the pencil to the paper and see if we actually made money on the bees. Here is hoping, but at this point our fiscal year ended on a high rather than a low.
Any how we leave tomorrow for Alberta. A 10 day whirl wind trip. High River to see some cousins. Calgary to see aunts and cousins, Edmonton to see brothers and their families, maybe my dieing mother if she will "allow" and my dad. Then to Lloydminster to see my other brother and his new future wife and their two kids (3 years and new born) and watch them get married, they have been together for many years and decided two weeks ago to tie the not. Then home on the 28th. I will need a week of rest to get ready to go back to work after that.
Have a Merry Christmas y'all
and a happy New Year!!
