[QUOTE="Bez__, post: 1215833, member: 22126"] Hi tamarack I am hoping to hit the Peace country this coming late summer if I can get a little better healed up - have not told Val and Allan yet in event it does not happen - but if I do, you better plan on getting together for a burger and a beer somewhere. When I was living in that little house on top of Dunvegan Hill, Eldon had a calf born with a bad back leg and he gave it to my wife to bottle feed - cost me an arm and a leg - and he thought it was quite funny! I ragged on him for weeks about that. One thing that I remember about him was his ability to pick out a good calf. He sold one to my oldest daughter and she won everything in northern Alberta with that calf - when she went to pay him the money he only took half of the agreed upon amount - and put that all back into the local 4H - told my daughter she did the work and he was proud of her. Helluva guy. By the way - I have worked that old squeeze - a POS that I complained about every time I used it - he used to just smile and shake his head and tell me he was open to me buying a new one if I had the spare cash! Be safe Bez__ [/QUOTE]
