 Overview
 Description
This place is not as photogenic or generally as interesting as Armour, but it's worth seeing if you're going to be hanging out at Armour anyway. It appears to be a little newer and there's less interesting equimpment as there is at Armour. There is, however, some time of large walk through cow/hog washing machine.

As a side note, I got a kick out of how the only sign I saw outside this place said "NO SOLICITING". Not "NO TRESSPASSING" or "AUTORIZED PERSONEL ONLY". I guess it's okay to be there provided you don't try to sell something to anyone that's also there at the time!
