Dana has been a busy boy while the kids are down in St. David. Friday, June 12th he left Mesa, Az at about 3:30 pm, after working at his construction job from 3am til 1pm. Dana and Ty were headed to Sleepy Eye, Minnesota with a load of Holstein bulls. They made really good time and were in Minnesota Saturday afternoon. It's 1,760 miles from Mesa to the place they delivered the bulls in Minn. Dana had to be back at his regular job on Monday morning and at the rate they were going, it was looking good that he'd be back in plenty of time.

So green!
Sleepy Eye, Minnesota
They had to make a stop in Roswell, New Mexico to pick up a load of cows coming to Maricopa, Az. About 50 miles Northeast of Roswell, one of the worst things that could happen, did happen... the cow truck broke a U-joint! They managed to make it into Roswell, only to find out that no shops were open until 8am Monday morning. Dana wasn't going to make it to work. I told him to hitch a ride home with aliens, he wasn't impressed Haha. While they were waiting for the truck to get fixed, Ty picked up 2 local loads of cows. After the truck was fixed, they hauled 2 loads of cows from one side of Roswell to the other side. They finally got on the road and Dana made it home at 3am Tuesday morning (June 16th). He had time enough to get in his truck and head to his other job...with very little sleep!
