I had a great time as always... glad there was some cider left by the time I got there!
Would have enjoyed seeing longbeard whip off those rats, probably could have learned a few things myself. Unfortunately, I was busting shelf ice from sunup to nearly sundown while retrieving the day's catch :/

Von and Michelle - A very special THANK YOU! You two go out of your way to make this a special event for all.
The first fur was on the table at 10:30 am and there were no breaks until after 6:30 pm. All of you should be commended for the quality and pride you have in the handling of your fur! I sincerely thank you all for your trust, your confidence, and more than anything else - for your friendship. The next sale at the Flatiron is on Saturday, January 10th. We will start at 10:00 am. I have to leave by 6:00 pm on that day so that I can get my tired old butt home, truck unloaded, and ready to go to a sale in another part of the state on Sunday, the 11th. I hope to see you all at the Flatiron again on the 10th!
Thank you!!!
Merry Christmas to you all!
John
