County Fair!

Today, we went to the Sacramento County Fair. We saw a couple 4-H & FFA friends, check out my placings on my entries and watched the goat show. The weather was less than great, it started pouring rain and by pouring, I mean like coming down in sheets! I'm glad we weren't in the livestock barn when it started! I plan on spending most of Memorial Day weekend at the Fair, hopefully next year I'll be a 4-H leader or maybe I'll be at the Butte County Fair! Oh, and I got 1st place on my wood burned sign, 1st place on my beef jerky and 3rd on my strawberry jam. I have one more competition on Saturday and I'm hoping for another 1st! Wish me luck!

Oops! I kinda forgot about ya'll!

I seriously didn't mean to forget about this blog! But it has literally been months, over half a year in fact since I last posted. Anyways, lots have happened and Hobble Rock is coming along swimmingly. We have a nice crop of volunteer potatoes coming into their prime, crape myrtle trees in a healthy grove, olive and orange trees waiting to be planted, blueberry bushes waiting to produce delicious berries for us, and a two trailers waiting to be repaired. I'm going to make a commitment to my readers now...I commit to writing at least one blog per week for the until December 31, 2010. Let's see if I can keep this commitment! God Bless!
