Fair Time

When the fair comes to town it consumes our life.

All the preparation of a year is played out in one month.

We pledged.

We prayed.

Then, we competed.

This year was Kevin's last.

Here he is with my farm favorite goat, Little Dot.

We came with smiles on our faces.

And left blood, sweat and tears behind.

(But not a bit of hay or goat poop.)

(We have to clean all that up.)

My 4-H group entered the hay bale decorating contest

and won a blue rosette ribbon.

We also designed and built a club booth that housed our

hatched butterflies.

We brought 8 of our goats to the fair this year.

(Including our three babies.)

And after all was said and done,

we rode a few rides.....

and called it finished.

.....UNTIL NEXT YEAR.....
