Executing a well-organized auction doesn’t happen without planning. It begins with a strong team and it happens because everyone knows the plan. Our first photo shows some of our team as they prepare for Saturday’s portion of this weekend’s auction.

It was a pleasure to conduct the two-day auction for William “Bill Hummer”. The weather for day two was much more pleasant than it was on Friday.

On Saturday, beginning at 8:30 a.m., we began selling the tools and equipment and other items from the barn. Begnning shortly after, at about 8:40 a.m., we began selling the antiques from the house. Both auction blocks continued on Saturday selling most of the day. By 3:30 p.m., all items and the real estate had been sold.

These pictures are just a few from Saturday.

Thank you to everyone who attended. There really is nothing quite like a public action.
