Putting it all away









So I really fell down on the job and did not get much for postings on the second half of the fair. If you ever want to see "time fly" sign up for the 4-H club and try keeping up. While we did work hard it is also a lot of fun. In every single barn we did better than we had ever done before. One of the highlights would have to be Julia O'Brian's pig going for the grand championship in the open swine show. Pretty cool for a group that had never even had a class champ in all the previous years.

Life at Wagner seems a little strange with so many of the animals gone. On Monday we took the heifers up to their new home at Golden Oaks. As a final salute to the year we had the kids paint one of the inside walls of the 4-H barn and sign it as a little mark of the year that was. Thank you to the parents and the other leaders Lynne, Anita and Julie for the great effort and hard work that you put in.
