The Buffalo Bill Farm and Ranch Expo

Monday, February 18th, 2008

Hello everyone! Just wanted to tell you about our trip to North Platte, NE. We went to The Buffalo Bill Farm and Ranch Expo. February 6th and 7th. Dad and I haven’t been to this event for several years, but all the show staff was glad to see us again. Its good to be missed! We left home in a blowing snow storm, made it a long trip to North Platte, but we made it without any complications. We seen a lot of our old friends that we have met over the years that attend most of the farm shows across the state. We also met some new ones too! Our Representative from Sundowner, Tim Barron,drove up from Oklahoma to help us out. Always a pleasure having him around, makes the show effortless for us because he is right there to answer any questions we or our customers may have. We had a great show! It is so good to talk to others involved with livestock and hear what they do and the associations they participate in, it is truly a breath of fresh air.

Be sure to come see us at the Nebraska Horse Expo. March 8-10 in Lincoln!! We will have some great trailers for you to look at. You’ll be able to see the quality of Sundowner along with their unmatched curb appeal. Hope to see you there!

ALL ABOUT OUR TRIP, NEW HABIT, AND WHAT’S NEXT!

Friday, February 1st, 2008

My wife Lori and I went to the Stock Show in Denver in January. I like visiting the trade show because it gives me the opportunity to see what all the other trailer mfg. companies have to offer and see what is new to the industry. One of the highlights of the trip was attending the Professional Bull Riding Event that was also part of the Stock Show. Lori and I are huge PBR fans and we go to an event every chance we get.

We decided last year that it just wasn’t enough to just be a fan so along with our good friends, John and Sue Utecht, we purchased our very own bucking stock cow and bull calf on her side. We keep them North of North Platte on Mark Ward’s ranch, V Lazy S Bullriding Productions. Mark and his wife Kelly raise bucking bulls and are involved with the Nebraska PBR events. He also supplies bulls for events all over the country. We have lots of fun being involved and have met lots of new friends. Well, that’s probably enough about our sick little habit, back to business! The month of February we will be at the North Platte show on the 6th and 7th. We will have some trailers out there and all our tools with us from quotes to financing. Come and See Us!! We are always glad to meet new people and make new friends and show you what we can do for you and yours. We always invite your comments and questions. Thanks for stopping by our website!
