I did indeed go to the Kalona sales barn the next day. The atmosphere was different than at Frytown. The cattle auction was occurring at the same time as the hay auction -- 1 was inside and the other was outside. There were Amish men and farmers here as well but I did not stick out like a sore thumb since I wasn't the only woman there. There was no organic hay. I did purchase 50 bales of hay. I felt a need to only take a dip rather than to dive right in.
One thing I did notice in Kalona which I hadn't at Frytown was the fact that all of the horses pulling the carts were bay. I don't know if this intentional or just a coincidence.
