Well it has been a while since my last post. Chris had a great time this year showing a cow instead of goats at the fair. He even got to enter 2 fairs. A local one at Athens and the Central WI State Fair in Marshfield. One of the 4H leaders let him work with and show a Lineback spring heifer she had. He also took a bunch of other stuff to the Marshfield fair. Our first batch of birds is ready to go. Tammy wants to have some plucked this year so she lined up a chicken plucker to rent yesterday. Got there and couldn't get it to fit in the vehicle. So the birds got a reprieve for now. Had some regrowth on the back pastures and the cattle are out taking care of that. Nice to not have to feed hay for a while. Picked up a little cattle trailer and when the cattle get put in the next pasture we will try to load up the bulls and get them out of here. Corn is almost ready to pick. Here's Chris and Ana at the Athens fair
And a few pics from the Marshfield fair...
