Farm Show 2008

A few weeks ago we (John, Michelle, and I) went to the Farm Show with Chris (John's training client) and Chris's girlfriend Megan. It had been quite a few years since I've attended the Farm Show, so I was excited.

We began our afternoon by having lunch. Various sandwiches were had by all - roast beef, sausage,and pulled pork BBQ. Of course we had to have our veggies, so we headed to the batter dipped veggie stand! Michelle and I had the broccoli and cauliflower with ranch dip. To finish off our meals we all had a famous Farm Show milkshake. Yummy.

From here we walked around. . . a lot. I will not bored anyone with the details, but we saw cute fuzzy cows (black Angus), alpacas, pigs, birds, lambs, nuts, produce, a dog show, etc. Now for the pictures.


Sleeping goat. . . too cute!


I love the out of focus quality. . . it captures the harried-ness that is the Farm Show. Us humans walk around like we're animals being herded from one location to the next.

So nothing exciting. However, I have a few moments that'd I'd like to record before I forget:
  • Megan saying she wore her cow shows (mistaking the zebra print on her shoes for the markings of a cow)
  • Megan looking at a baby goat and apologizing for eating it for dinner (she was making veal for dinner and thought she was talking to a baby cow)
  • Megan commenting on how snakes prey on rabbit eggs (confused by the Easter Bunny, perhaps?)
As you can imagine, Megan kept us laughing.

That's all for now friends. Until next time!
