Wednesday, July 30, 2008 - The county fair

The fair started Sunday, which was my fancy chicken judging.  There was also a show, which is where I actually show the chicken to the judge and name the different parts and things like that.  it went pretty well.  I didn't win anything in the showmanship, but I got 4th for my chickens. 

Monday was...uhhh...nothing!  Oh yes, we gave our meat chickens a bath AT the fair, whick was really...hard.  There were only 4 hoses and about 6 people.  It was pretty crowded, but we worked it out.

Tuesday (yesterday) it took us an hour to do our animals at the fair.  I was really tired when we finally came home after going to the grocery store.

Today was my meat chicken judging, which I got 3rd place in, and this evening I am getting my hair done and I am modeling my outfit!  I am really excited...just a little nervous, though.  I won't know what I got on my sewing project until this evening...there are 12 girls in my project, and I think msot of them did better than I.

I also got 1st on photography. As soon as the fair is over, I'll post pictures of my displays. :) I have taken LOTS of pictures, but I have to upload them all first.
Sometimes when I come home from the fair, I still smell the smells...funnel cakes, fair fries, corn dogs (yuck) and ice cream...it's kind of weird. :)

Well I am gonna go now. I have to go up to the neighbor's house to see their kitty. They're going on vacation and want us to take care of it for them. I will write more after the fair!

Wow, great job on getting 1st in photography! I hope you do good in your sewing and modeling too.

I'm sure giving the chickens a bath at the fair was hard.

Also, did you get the letters?
