# Ten :- Loading...
Making my way into town brought a lot of opportunities so being selective about what I consider to shoot key. A few snaps were taken but it was Woolworths old loading bay with its lovely red Biffa bin that took my eye the most. God bless the bad weather and all the inspiration it has brought me.
I promised Steve (misterpexies57) some low-loader progress a while back, to be honest there hasn't been much to show really.
Until now, shown here are some of the 16 new wheel bearing's, 16 new brake shoe pull-back springs, and 4 new push-rod springs I've had to have made, and 4 relined shoes.
This trailer was in pretty good condition to say it's 60 years old, unfortunately water ingress has knackered all the wheel bearings, corrosion has also made the big compression springs fall to pieces as well, the shoe pull-back springs are out of shape and have to be replaced.
I don't know the age on this complex maze of stock corrals and loading chutes, but as dusk was settling, I could imagine what it would be like to see this area in full swing--the bellows, snorts and farts of the livestock, the yelps of the cowhands, the screech of closing gates, not to mention the dust and the stench.
The Fort Worth Stockyards held its last auction in December 1992, and the old market shut down.
Historic Fort Worth Stockyards.
From a site about the Fort Worth Stockyards: www.stockyardsmuseum.org/index_files/StockYardsHistory.htm
Both Armour and Swift had huge outdated plants that were straddled with risings costs, wages and administrative expenses. Armour was the first to close their Fort Worth plant in 1962 with Swift hanging on until 1971. Partial demolition followed over the years after several fires.
Weekly livestock auctions ceased many years ago, but the Stockyards continues to host special breed events and sales including Longhorn auctions. Many thousand of head of cattle are still sold in the Stockyards every week via video/satellite sales originating in the Exchange Building. The livestock legacy lives on.

Templeate by: Scrappin with Liz. Paper by: sgleanson: olivetree, pp 15. Wiggle outline: Digital Scrapbook Experts: May flowers Tahoe sticker: Digital Artisan Guild, A Room With A View. I don't usually do pages about me, so this was a total challenge. From mid December until yesterday, I spent my time in Reno, NV, and then between my home in Wheatland, WY and Casper, WY, being chieft cook, bottle washer and taxi driver for my two daughters. I am going to change the journaling to reflect that both Katie and Megan live together in Casper and that Katie was in Reno working when she had her car accident. Journaling: December 2011 brought many changes to our lives. I spent from the 18th of December to the 11th of January in Reno, NV with Katie after her car accident. Then on February 29th, 2012, Megan slipped and fell on the ice at the apartment complex and broke her ankle and required surgery. Now 8 weeks later I have two girls that are now are finally wearing two shoes!
A sketch of one of the massive Caterpillar loaders for sale a couple of blocks from my office. While I was sketching, I realized that it needed color, but that hitting it with watercolor would buckle the paper in my sketchbook, so I gave my highlighter pen a shot.

Journaling reads:
It is amazing how calming the color of water and sky can be...These blue chairs spoke relaxation to us.Not a care in the world as we laid on our chairs. Our biggest concern was when the next time to eat was and make sure we didn't get sun burnt. All other concerns were left at home...
