for everyone

I am just so excited to have BCF Steel from Alec Sharp in S. C.

The story is that Alec bought a buckling from me who was the son of Beechkeld Cedar.  I sold Cedar that same year to someone about a 1/2 hour away with the agreement that i could lease him back in a year or so for breeding.  Thru the grapevine I found out Cedar had died about 8 months later for lack of care along with several does.

So, I called Alec to see if he had any bucklings from Teddy and he did!  A blue one at that. Then the dilemma of how to get him here. I had said I would drive to pick him up and Alec was kind enough to figure a way to get him about an hour closer to me. But as time went by, I realized that I just wasn't going to be able to fit in another trip so soon and with the cost of gas. Yikes.  So, I called the Vaughn's who fly privately.  I knew Brian flies to Ill a few times a year and took a chance. Believe it or not, Brian was flying the next week over KY and could make the stop. Alec was kind to drive Steel to the airport and within 3 hours Steel was landing in KY.

Thanks Alec for going out of your way with such a busy schedule.

I am just tickled pink with the little boy.  He is one thick, coated boy.  He reminds me so much of his grandfather in the looks of his ears and face.

Thanks a bunch.

Judy
