a program that invests in it’s future...
The Waltzs welcome
Welcome to the 7th Annual W2 Bull Sale and boy has it been a year… We want to once again welcome our partners in the sale and our good friends Wallgren Farms who have been a part of everyone of these. Wallgrens have assembled a first class herd and we are very happy to have them join us each year. New this year we will welcome Country Lane Angus, the Partington Family who live 3 minutes away from us. They will be bringing a great set of Angus bulls who we think will complement the Simmental bulls. We would like to thank all the past buyers, bidders and everyone who has reached out about the bulls over the years. As always please don’t hesitate to pick up the phone or come for a drive and see the bulls and their mommas. The market this fall was great and is still picking up steam! It’s great to see all the operations who have stuck this cattle thing out and are now being rewarded for their efforts.
As always things are busy around here with running 170 cows, calving in 2 periods, doing a bit of custom corn planting, selling some Pioneer seed, Kelly chairing the beef committee for the Vermilion Ag Society, both Kelly and Jenna coaching kids hockey teams, Jenna running a wellness business and wrangling 4 kids, but we wouldn’t change it for the world. Marley (10)has been busy this past year with dance and 4-H and she took her heifer Darlin to a few shows last summer. Cash (8) has us busy with hockey, 4-H and he too hauled around his heifer Sugar last summer. Jaycee (7) also plays hockey as well as 4-H and if you know Jaycee she always keeps us running, Lastly, Merit (5) is enjoying his second year of hockey and he loves to spend time in the barn. To say we’re busy would be a pretty big understatement, but everyday around here is exciting and with the kids becoming more involved by the day I think we’re in pretty good hands for the future.
The group of bulls we have brought to you are real beef bulls. Bulls that are managed and bred to last and to put pounds on those calves. We continue to source the next best herd bull, donor female and AI sire to use to take us to that next level and we are very proud of where our program has come and the quality of herd bulls we walk. We continue to invest heavily on embryo transfer and again put in around 30 embryos this past year. We have some dominate cow families that you will see throughout this catalog and we will have a couple new ones coming to you over the next couple years. The coming 2 yr old bulls were pulled off grass November 2nd and have been on a corn silage ration. These bulls are grown out gently as yearlings and spend their summer on green grass and a mineral package. Our yearlings come in to the yard in late September and are managed just as our late born calves are. No creep feed, no feet have been trimmed and bulls that we think will give you that longevity that we look for.
Please plan to join us February 18 at the farm for some great hospitality and a pretty darn impressive group of bulls. If you would like to have a look before sale day the coffees always on and the beer’s cold.

Sales Management
It’s unbelievable how fast time flies as we welcome you to Chapter 7 of the W2 Land & Cattle Simmental Bull Sale. With that said, this program along with their guest consignors, have many combined years of breeding purebred cattle and marketing bulls to top commercial and purebred operations across the Country and even though this is only the seventh year of a live bull sale, all three of these operations have been making a positive impact on the beef industry for many more years than that. We are excited to invite you South of Vermilion on February 18, 2025 for this big time set of Simmental & Angus bulls.
The W2 program is an exciting family operation that provides one of the only opportunities we see all spring to acquire 2-year old Simmental Bulls that are bred and raised to sell as such. These bulls are big, growthy, athletic bulls that are a combination of being off powerful, sought after walking herd bulls as well as sons from their extensive embryo transfer program. The small but mighty section of yearling bulls from W2 are a great example from their winter calving program and feature many exciting donor females backing them.
Again the Wallgren Farms outfit has brought fourth 15 very promising bull prospects. The WF prefix has quickly become one synonymous with quality and passion. Brant and Dean & family have done a great job building around some fo the very best cows in the industry and always utilize the top sires either by walking them or acquiring exciting semen packages. This set of bulls is built for the times and can be appreciated by even the most discriminating of cattleman. It is highlighted by the Reserve Champion Bull from FarmFair, lot 46 as well as a special black blaze herd sire lot 51.
New this year we are excited to welcome the Partington family of Country Lane Angus from just down the road of W2. Country Lane has been in the Angus business since 1955 and bring a lifetime dedication of breeding and selling high quality Angus stock to the equation. Their dozen Angus bulls offer a tonne of calving ease without sacrificing performance with a heavy emphasis on maternal characteristics. We just know the Country Lane bulls will be a great addition to this sale and will compliment the Simmental Bulls very well.
Please accept this as your personal invitation to join us for this exciting set of Simmental & Angus Bulls. The combination of cattle and people truly make this a sale you won’t want to miss. Be sure to give any of the Waltz’, Wallgren’s or Partington’s a call to discuss their offering. If your busy schedules keep you away from sale day, feel free to give any of us listed from BMS a call as we would be happy to assist in any way possible. We look forward to seeing you sale day!

LOT 1: Our Flirty Magilcuty donor has done great things for our program. Top end sons have went through this sale such as Southside, Kraken and Money, we have sold a few high end females over the last few years and we have added numerous daughters to our herd. No matter which way we flush her it works, but maybe none as well as the Bentley x Flirty combo. You wont find a better disposition in a bull then 4L. He has been a favorite around here for a long time and when you throw in the pedigree that’s backing him it’s easy to see why. Full of natural muscle with that herd bull presence make “Ring the Bell” one of the top bulls we have ever offered through this sale.

LOT 3: Our Holyfield sire group has been one that we have been excited to share for a while. We just recently sold our first Holyfield female to the good people at Johnson Ranching for $23,000. The Holyfield bull has made waves in the industry in a short time and this will be the first calf crop we have to offer of him, but you can be sure it won’t be our last. We partnered with our good friends at Black Gold Simmentals on Holyfield where they would walk him early and we would walk him late. Their first son to sell off him last spring commanded $212,000! Add in a direct daughter of our Flirt donor in Lot 3 and we believe we really have something in this herd sire candidate. The Holyfield cattle will add frame and the calving ease he has shown has been a pleasant surprise. One of our pics of the bulls all summer long on grass for sure.

LOT 5: With just an 80 lb birthweight Firebird came in to this world at a very reasonable size and has impressed us at every stage of his
The young female behind this bull has put her second straight son through this sale in just 2 tries at motherhood. Her first son was a feature black bull last year going to James Preston at Speddon to service his good group of black females he runs in the north country. The added baldy face should through some white on a calf crop and like I’ve mentioned earlier those blazed calves get a premium at market no doubt.

If you’re looking to add frame to your calf crop have a look here. 54L has that added frame and stretch to him, while still having the muscle shape we require in herd bulls. No doubt he will be a heavy weight come sale day. The cow behind Lot 7 came to us from Johnson Ranching where she has done nothing but good for us. A couple sons have went through this sale and a daughter is working at Mcintosh Livestock in Maymont and one at Selte Land & Cattle right here at Vermilion. This guy looks like a herdbull!
$12,000 James Preston
Here’s one of our son Cash’s bulls and a good one at that. At the rate we’re going the kids are going to have to put their bottle and cattle money together to pick up a quarter or two of land to house all these cows. The dam behind Lot 8 came to us from the Lewis Farms program and she was direct daughter of arguably their top cow the great Heaven Sent female. This is the first son of Cash’s Heaven Sent cow as she gave us 4 straight females to open her production career. All 4 making the replacement pen…
$7,500 David Loewen
All 8 of the Holyfield sons on offer this year are high end bulls in our mind and this is the only son out of a red cow. When you see the dam behind 19L you will understand where the bull gets his ease of fleshing and lose hide from. The 510C cow has put a son through this sale and two daughters in herd to date. A bull that we think will calve real nice and maybe a real nice option for those second calvers. This won’t be the last you here of the Holyfield sire.

LOT 10: This is the last year of Rival bulls, we have sold 39 sons to date with 8 more this year in the sale. Rival sons have been well
making their way to some top herds in the area. The 400B cow has earned her keep with this being her third son go through this sale. She is the ideal Simmental cow in our mind, easy keeping, good uddered and a great foot under her. Low maintenance cows are our kind and she fits that to a tee.

LOT 15: The High Stakes group has been as consistent of red group as we have ever put together in the bull pen. High Stakes himself is a true stud as a mature bull. A bull that we plan to use as long as we can for how uniform he makes his calf crop. The 21L bull himself has many of the attributes of his great sire, great haired, big hipped and soft made. We have always enjoyed the Mountain females and his mother is one of the best. They are peas in a pod and all have produced. This High Stakes group had many admirers when toured on grass this summer and we think the same will be said as the bull pen fills up.

LOT 17: We have always admired the 821F cow as she is another of these Mountain females. The 3 years we offered Mountain sons through this sale they were very popular. Numbers that read calving ease, but the bulls still looked like herd bulls that have some punch to them. Lot 17 would be a ¾ brother to the Lot 15 bull. Definitely one of the quietest bulls in the pen, but also a bull with that muscle shape and stoutness. 51L would be one of our picks of this sire group no doubt.
AA Act. BW 92 Adj. WW n/a
LOT 18: Unleashed 64L comes from a beautiful Cobra daughter that is sending her third bull through our sale. Past sons have went to Wes Denman and the great syndicate of Ty Miller and Jesse Guy. Another High Stakes son with great CE and BW numbers. All this sire group have those great numbers, but we feel everyone of the bulls still has that punch to them that is a must in herdbull at our place. The 64L bull himself has a little added frame and a ton of hair just like his momma and papa have. A bull that has some presence to him and is easy to find in the pen.

Lot 19 and 20 are in fact twins out of daughter Jaycees great Westcott cow Yara who has sent a heifer calf to Mader Ranches where she has produced very well for them as well as a bull last year to Jordan Carley Leskow and she has another bull in the keeper pen for next years sale. She is the kind of cow that looks the same every day of the year. Easy doing and productive would best describe Yara. 9L himself is the bigger of the twins and is filled with natural muscle and shape to him. If a big powerful cow backing your bull are important to you here is a nice option.
The more moderate of the twins and probably the bull who had a tougher start to his life.

LOT 21: Another High Stakes son with great CE and BW numbers ranking himself in the top 20 and 30 percent for the breed. The 10G cow who came from Maxwells has put her first three calves through our bull sale. That’s the kind of production we come to know from this big barreled dark red Circle G Cash daughter. 35L himself has that added frame and hair and has always had that herd bull crest to him. A bull that will add pounds and leave that dark red color in your calf crop no doubt.

LOT 22: Last year we started off our sale with 4 sons of our Pocahontas donor cow and they were well received. Here is another son of the beautiful female and probably the stoutest made son she has had to date. 2L is packed full of red meat and has that added shape to him while always having that herd bull look to him. We thought we were going to lose our Pocahontas donor from an injury last year, but she has recovered fully and looks as good as ever which has us excited for the bulls and females she will produce over the coming years.

LOT 23: The fourth bull the 656D cow has put through our sale with a couple others being sale features going to Kyle Buckle of Saskatchewan and Scott Mcleod of BC. We are very proud of the twelve 2 yr old High Stakes sons as well as the 3 yearlings in this years sale. Last year we sold 3 yearlings off of High Stakes and they averaged $12,000 and we think this group has only got stronger. We sold a High Stakes bred in Border City this fall where she commanded $20,000 to Downhil Simmentals and TSN Livestock. We love this last High Stakes son for all the same reasons we fell in love with his sire. Lots of hair, that herd bull look and a bull that is so structurally correct. High Stakes is a name you will hear about from the W2 program for years to come.

LOT 25: The 607D cow that came us from Rancier Farms has been a staple around here for her production. Her sons W2 Kingdom commanded $26,000 to Westman Farms, $18,000 to Jerry Sweeney as well as sons going to Kelly Husch, Motley Farms and Fath Farms. We like the 607D cow so much we have actually flushed her once where she gave us 31 eggs. 32L is the only red Holyfield son in the sale which is intriguing coming from 2 black parents, not unlike his paternal brother that Black Gold sold for $212,000, Tangleflags.

LOT 26: We bought our son Cash a bred heifer from Lewis Farms back when he was just a toddler and boy has she paid off. She has put 4 females back in the herd and this bull would be out of one of those females. We love this 48L bull to put it bluntly. He has been a stud at every point of his life. Invest 48L has so much going for him and it starts at his prefect skull shape and moves back into a real tidy placed shoulder. He explodes from there in terms of rib shape and follows that up with a real big hip. A herd bull we think can fit a bunch of different programs.
Calving
W2 SHOOTER 38L
LOT 27: One of the softest sided bulls in the sale who comes from a beautiful cow in terms of phenotype. She’s one of those front pasture cows who you love to have the neighbors see. 38L has looked like a herd bull for a long time. He was early maturing with that crest and looks to have a big scrotal. The Chaos sire group may only be 3 deep, but it’s a good 3 for sure. Last year the Chaos sons were popular and for good reason and we think this year will be no different.

Sire - Wheatland Chaos 9145G
LOT 29: The Rival sire group this year is as consistent as we have ever had it. Leading the way is this dark red, big hipped impressive herd bull candidate. He comes us from a Sheer Force dam who is putting her third bull through this sale and the previous two have been highlights for sure both going to Jason Swainson at S5 Cattle Corp. the last two years. The 978 cow is moderate in frame size, but crossed with the larger framed Rival bull we have what we would call an ideal frame sized herd bull. He will be a bull that catches some looks come sale day we are sure.
$7,750 Mike & Deanne Paterson $6,500 Wes Denman
Here’s our loan half blood bull this year, but he is indeed a ¾ blood bull by pedigree. He comes from our son Cash who has 3 bulls in the sale this year. Waterfall as Cash calls her has done a great job for Cash as she puts everything into her calf each year. We always say we need to get a picture of her before weaning with her calf sucking as it is always the size of her. If you came for a dark red bull with a calving ease look to him this would be a great bull to look at. At the rate our kids are going they’re going to have to ask for a quarter of land from Santa next year to house all these cows.
Another dark red Rival son. Rival himself was an ideal color of red and he has passed that on too many of his sons. Add in the dark red color of 18L’s dam and this is what you get. A real honest bull here with that extra length of body, great haircoat while being moderate as far as frame size. The Limitless dam puts everything in to her calf each year, all while having an ideal udder, both in suspension and teat size.
A big stretchy Rival son from a large framed Royal Red cow who has put a number through the sale. 702 would be one of our bigger framed cows on the place and she puts that frame in to all her calves. Big calves in the fall pay bills.
Maternal brother
LOT 34: One of the picks of the Rival group no doubt. A big lose hided bull who has always exceled as far as performance and when you see his momma you will understand. Arguably the biggest ribbed cow in our herd who is overwhelming as far as body mass. Our kind of cow no doubt. 25L himself has a lot going for him with his great haircoat, big square foot and that extra performance. He will sire a load of heavyweight steers no doubt.

LOT 36: A beautiful blazed bull who again has that dark, dark red hair coat that is so popular these days. The Apollo bull himself is chalked full of red meat and muscle and really is an impressive herd bull. We ended up buying in to him when we had a little bad luck with a new bull we had purchased and he filled an important role for us, adding that outcross pedigree. The Apollo numbers aren’t huge, but they all have one thing in common, they look like herd bulls. If a new pedigree is something your looking for havea look at this sire group. W2 MISSION

Wallgren Farms have been great to work with as they continually strive to produce and develop elite Simmental cattle. Brant is as keen as any young person in the industry and has done a great job in developing this consistent set of bulls.
The bulls are developed on grass with their dams and then moved onto a balanced TMR that promotes lean muscle growth. Organic minerals are used to ensure proper immune function and the overall health of the bulls. The nutritional health and development of the bulls and the entire cowherd is of utmost importance and is continually being tweaked to meet environmental and seasonal conditions. If you have any questions about the nutrition program of the Wallgren bulls, feel free to call.

On behalf of Westman Animal Nutrition, we would like to thank the Waltz family for trusting in us with their cow herd nutrition advice and PerforMAX mineral needs.

Brant Wallgren 639-840-0126 | Dean Wallgren 780-806-0571 | brantwallgren66@gmail.com
We welcome you to the 7th annual W2 land and Cattle bull sale, we are always grateful for the opportunity to be a guest consignor in this great sale! We have really enjoyed marketing our bulls in this event and we are always working hard to make a better set of bulls year after year. It’s a great privilege to work alongside the Waltz family and they are truly the nicest people around and great people to work with, they love raising good cattle and they do a darn good job at it.
Our farm is located 10 miles north of Edgerton AB, where we run a mix grain and cow calf operation that consists of 160 purebred and commercial Simmental cows. Our purebred herd is slowly growing each year and we strive to keep the quality as high as we can as we slowly increase, so we can bring a elite set of bulls to offer year after year. We run a top notch set of commercial cows and they play a big part in expanding our purebred genetics. We calve the commercials early with the purebreds and that way we are able to utilize them to expand our purebreds genetics with embrvo transplants. Our E.T program has created a new and fresh lineup of genetics and we implanted 70 embryos this spring off our elite donors, along with purchasing different embryo matings through select sales. This creates a strong lineup of some of the newest and most proven genetics in the breed and we continue to keep growing our herd this way. We also strongly believe the best way to grow a herd is to buy a female that can change your program for the better and we have built up some cornerstone females around our place now and we encourage anyone to stop in for a tour any time throughout the year! This lineup of bulls is a group that has been sure fun to watch grow over the last year and truly a group we are darn proud of. Our bulls are fed on Bulleves TMR based ration, and are kept in a large pen to allow ideal movement at all times as structural soundness is very important to us. Attention to detail in feeding and management we take very seriously and stand 100% behind our bulls. We feel confident we have assembled a group of bulls that represents the direction our program is aiming toward, and we are sure proud of them.
You’re always welcome to stop in and have a look at the bulls and cowherd anytime of the year, we would love to show you around. Don’t hesitate to contact us about any of the bulls in the offering or give a shout to anyone on Bohrson Marketing team for their professional assistance. We would like to thank all our buyers over the previous years. everyone’s support is overwhelming and greatly appreciated! We look forward to seeing everyone sale day Feb 18!
LOT 46: Maxed Out has always been a special one around here and he has been an absolute unit since day 1. He is extremely stout, big middled, with tons of muscle shape and sets down on a big square foot. He has such a neat look for having such defined herd bull characteristics which makes him very intriguing to analyze. He was our pick of the bulls all spring and summer so we decided to make plans to campaign him in the fall and he definitely made us proud in the showring. He started off with being crowned Reserve Champion Simmental bull at Lloydminster Stockade, Grand Champion bull in King of the Ring, and he rounded off the fall with being crowned Reserve Champion Simmental Bull at Farmfair International. He is sired by none other then the $280,000 Mader Walk the Line that has sure left his mark on his calves as he continues to leave an impressive set of offspring in many respected breeder’s herds as he was used very heavily in many programs. The Walk the Line cattle are early maturing and ones that are easy to pick out at weaning and they will be the ones to push down the scale. Performance and power runs deep in this pedigree. His dam was a past high seller in Friday Night Lights to Mader Ranches and we still think she may be the best female we have sold to date. She entered the donor pen right away and she has proven to be a big time producer for Maders. She goes back to the great Cream Soda cow family so she is built around great udder quality and big time maternal strength. We are excited to offer Maxed Out to the industry as we feel like he has tons of breeding potential and he is one of the best reds we have created.

LOT 48: Here’s a crowd favourite red bull in the pen. Admired for his overall dimension and volume. He so massive made and big middled and is as stout as you can make one. A bull that is structurally sound and is the type that is built to last. This bull is a spitting image of his sire Dutton, that we plan to continue to utilize greatly to improve our red program and he has sure impressed us with his first set of calves. His dam is an impressive second calver that is a tight uddered, attractive made female that is a big time producer.

LOT 50: A real intriguing red blaze that comes from a very neat and proven pedigree. 187M has been a standout since day 1 and has always had that herdbull presence to him. This bull is plenty stout, soft made and puts it all together in an attractive made and sound package. His sire was the most winning Simmental bull calf when he showed a few years back in the fall and was admired by many breeders then went on in the spring to sell for $102,000 in Black Gold Bull Sale. His dam is none other then the great Fox Trot cow that is a unique breeding piece that has so much style and presence yet doesn’t lack any power and punch in her calves. She’s a super sound, flexible, big footed cow with great udder quality. 187M has made many friends throughout the summer and has continued to get attention. This bull we are quite high on.

He’s athletic on the move and is built to last. He’s top 1% in the breed for WW and YW. A full sister RF Scream 3134 was the most winning bred hiefer throughout all spring and summer and is one of the best bred heifers in country. Full brothers were past sale toppers the $100,000 RF Intensity and $75,000 RF Intense. This is a proven and predictable pedigree that stems back to some of the greatest genetics in the breed.

Here’s one that will push the scale down! Weaning off at 1080lbs and he has all the right pieces that make him a big performance driven herdbull option. He has been a standout since day 1 and he has proved to stay impressive the whole way through. 189N is big boned, big topped, soft made, and as long as a freight train. His dam is none other than our famous Sheila donor that needs no introduction as she is one of the hottest, most proven cows in the breed at the moment. She will go down as the most profitable cow to ever step foot on the farm. Sheila is known for raising incredible bulls and she sure pulled through with this guy. Just imagine the baldy calves you would get off this guy crossed with a nice group of angus cows, the potential will have no end!
Another Magnitude son that checks the right boxes off. He’s a big framed, super long bodied bull that has the look to burn and will be the type you will want to keep every daughter off of. He is very fluent on the move and doesn’t miss a track and steps down on a big square foot. His dam is a massive made, big bodied female that has an incredible udder. The original Blackgold granddam to this guy has left us a ton of big time females and I think when you add Magnitude into the equation that will lock in maternal strength even more.
Consistency runs deeps in the Magnitude sons as he keeps the quality high on every son. Here’s one off a favourite cow around here, Flirty. She is the perfect silhouette of the ideal looking type a cow. Breathtaking to look at from every angle with a show stopping presence that is super sound with big square feet and a picture perfect udder. 218M has a
A pair of intriguing full brothers that share a lot of similarities. Moderate made, easy doing, big boned, stout, and super hairy. They were easy to pick out on pasture tours this summer and they continue to catch a lot of attention. A full brother was lead off in the bull sale and was a high seller to W2 and Westman, and many sons off High Stakes will be highlighted in the sale this year and one son is bound to lead off the whole sale. The bulls stem back to the great CMS Soda Pop 417B cow that has consistently raised many great ones. The Soda Pop cow family is well known for being big bodied, soft made, good uddered, prolific looking females that do great in the show ring and even better in production. Betts needs no introduction to the breed as he is the one of most proven red bulls out there and is known to make incredible set of females that are high quality that are standouts in every herd. A full sister to these brothers we retained in our herd and she entered the donor pen and is currently being flushed and we have big plans for her ahead. A impressive set of full brothers to consider.

On behalf of my family here at Country Lane Angus we would like to welcome you to our very first guest consignment bull sale. We are honored and thrilled to be a part of Chapter 7 of the W2 Land and Cattle Simmental Sale. Our heartfelt thanks go to Kelly and Jenna for inviting us to join this prestigious event. Country Lane’s story began in 1955 in Evesham, SK, when it was founded by my parents, Thomas and Anne Partington. Although it took a brief hiatus while I attended college, the operation was revitalized in 1990 by Geretta and myself in Vermilion, AB. We both worked full-time off the farm so needless to say, our focus was on quality as opposed to quantity. Today, our son, Austin and his wife Sydney and daughter Carsyn have joined the CLA Team, continuing the family tradition, building their own elite herd with intent and passion. Our daughter, Brittany and her husband Joel and their 3 boys, Paxton, Walker and Blake live in Lloydminster but spend lots of time at the farm helping out wherever and whenever needed. Our farm is located just seven miles south of Vermilion, on the west side of Highway 41 and a very short distance from the W2 farm operation. We calve out approximately 80 cows annually and continue to focus on quality. We calve our cows in January and February so that we can market select females in the fall and sell our bulls as yearlings the following spring. Our breeding program emphasizes innovation and excellence. We extensively utilize artificial insemination (AI), breeding the majority of our herd within a 21-day window. Recently, we’ve also been incorporating embryo transfer technology to further enhance our offerings. When selecting sires, we prioritize calving ease and integrating new proven genetics, ensuring we have something to suit every need. We are very grateful for all the buyers who have supported our program through private treaty in the past and we look forward to continue working with you as we take part in this new opportunity to showcase our program. We have on offer 12 yearling bulls that we are very proud of and will stand behind them 100%. The bulls are vaccinated and weaned in early September and fed a balanced Bullseye TMR based ration with access to a large bull run for ideal athleticism and development. The cow/calf pairs are on free choice Westman Animal Nutrition mineral summer/fall and we move to a Bullseye mineral once they get on their TMR for winter/spring feeding.
We warmly invite you to the farm for a tour anytime—our door is always open, and the coffee is always on. On February 16th, the bulls will be moved to the W2 sale facility for your viewing. If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to contact Austin, myself or any of the Bohrson Marketing Team. We also extend a personal invitation to join us on sale day, February 18, 2025. We look forward to seeing you there!
Sincerely, Arch
On Behalf of the Country Lane Team
