Farm Show

Yesterday was our annual trek to the farm show. We had a wonderful time, on the way out we stop at a little place on old 22 called Esther's. It's been there for quit a will and is a well known stop for truckers. After breakfast we finish the trek to the show. We end up staying for about 9 hours, which is a long day.

The grand championship for the sheep to shawl went to Time Warp for the fourth consecutive year and there shawl auctioned for over $2000.00. After that auction it was time for the fleece auction. I was able to pick up 4 nice fleeces. Before the auction I made some new friends, we discussed wool and the finest of some fleeces. That was fun and a rewarding experience, that I hope one day will be expanded upon. That was this year's farm show in a nutshell. It'll be a couple of week's until our next adventure.
