Canada's Largest Auction...




Last night was date night...we went to Moxies for dinner down at South Ed Common. The food was really nice and great service - we got there early and there was no line up - I think everyone else had gone to Milestones for their 'date night' special (you order and your date gets theirs free) as they had people lining up out the door even at 5:30pm!!!

After dinner we drove down to Nisku to the Ritchie Bros auction house to see the huge auction there - Lloyd had registered a few days ago as he was interested in the prices of the track hoes...he knows he will need one eventually so he was interested to know what they will go for at the auction. I knew there were cars, golf carts and diggers, helicopters etc there but I had no idea there would be log cabins and stables there! It was really interesting to walk around and see everything! I really had a great time and we had so much fun! We went in the auction rooms and listened to the auctions taking place - they were selling lots of wood at the time for $900 a lot - there were people online in Saskatchewan going up against people in the room....really interesting to watch! Very fast!

It was a fun date night and just what I needed after a day of facilitator meetings and worrying about Val and her family!!! (sorry Val lol)
