| In May 2010, we traveled to the US for the Charolais Congress. Starting in Oklahoma City , and then through Texas. We were treated with fantastic hospitality, not to mention the scenery and Charolais Cattle . At Lehman Charolais, Tioga, Texas we enjoyed a heifer show and a wonderful meal.

After the Congress tour we flew to Canada to check out some more cattle. Were we in for a treat. Except for the excess of hair, the cattle we saw were very much the type we like in Queensland . Picked up in Calgary, by Craig we headed south to Dale Jorgensen's cattle . It was there we spotted G.Bros Thin Red Line, a young Red bull that we have since bought the Australian rights to. We are very excited about expecting his first calves, which are due in December. We then went on to see Jackie Sproule's Charolais on their magnificent property at Pincher Creek. And it was cold!!. Many thanks to Craig for a very memorable day.
Next day We spent in Saskatchewan with John, Brenda, and Craig . We were really impressed with the Wilgenbusch herd . Herd Sires , Piece, Sterling Silver and Kaboom were impressive as were their cow herd and calves. Thanks John and Brenda for your warm welcome and hospitality.
