I spent 4 hours on Thursday taking pictures of the last cattle sale at the Sioux Falls Stockyards. My children have been going to the stockyards for 7 years to visit their grandma (who does/did the books for Central Livestock). They have really enjoyed seeing the cattle, hogs, and sheep. It was a sad day at the yards as the last draft of cattle went into the auction block. The Stockyards were open in Sioux Falls for 92 years and many farmers and buyers have spent years in these buildings. The auction barn was packed on this last day. It was an everlasting experience, one I am making onto a DVD for workers at the yards. I hope you enjoy!
