Episode 5: The Tale of Two Bridges (February 1, 2019)

On day 3 of our great #Americanroadtrip, we saw windmills... and listen to what song actually just happened to be playing when we did. #MN #Minnesota #Californiaorbust #iPhone5sphotography #AmericanMidwest

Hey guys! Sorry it's been so long! Been crazy busy the last little while. Made the jump back to America, got to catch up with peeps, and even visit the stunning Rocky mountains... Who decided to hide behind clouds for my whole trip! Lol figures right? Still awe inspiring #therockies #therockiesareblue #travel #americanmidwest #majestic #buffalo (at Loveland, Colorado)

“While the pork and chicken industries have consolidated the entire life cycles of those animals under a single roof, beef cattle are still born on thousands of independently owned ranches. Although four giant meatpacking companies (Tyson’s subsidiary IBP, Monfort, Excel and National) now slaughter and market more than 80 percent of the beef cattle born in this country, that concentration represents the narrow end of a funnel that starts out as wide as the great plains.”

“In my grandfather’s day, steers were 4 or 5 years old at slaughter,” explained Rich Blair, who, at 45, is the younger of the brothers by four years. “In the 50’s, when my father was ranching, it was 2 or 3. Now we get there at 14 to 16 months.” Fast food indeed. What gets a beef calf from 80 to 1,200 pounds in 14 months are enormous quantities of corn, protein supplements—and drugs, including growth hormones. These “efficiencies,” all of which come at a price, have transformed raising cattle into a high-volume, low-margin business. Not everybody is convinced that this is progress. “Hell,” Ed Blair told me, “my dad made more money on 250 head than we do on 850.”

The fact that we get to live on a planet that’s THIS otherworldly beautiful is just 🤯😍🤤 • • #roadtrip #roadtriplovers #fallfoliage #fallcolors #foliagequest #foliageroadtrip #latowyoming #yellowstone #yellowstonenationalpark #getoutside #exploremore #americanmidwest #placestogo #getinloserweregoingexploring #wyoming #idaho #explorewyoming #americasnationalparks #nationalpark #surrealviews #likeapainting #unrealbeauty #visualpoetry #natureisbeautiful #natureisart #stunningviews #enjoyoutdoors #buffalo #bison #yellowstonebison (at Yellowstone) https://www.instagram.com/p/CpazTmVPWXm/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
