Cheatham Co. Fair.

The Ceatham Co. fair was Thursday August 21st. We again showed our three heifers and our bull, this time without any other Gelbvieh cattle to show against. They all behaved well except for the January heifer we call "Grumpy." I have blisters on my hands and a purple toe from getting stepped on. I still feel pleased with how the cattle looked, and we got positive comments from the other competitors about how well they appeared. We placed 1st, 2nd,and 3rd in heifer class, Grand and Reserve Champions for breed, and bull got 1st, and Grand Champion. We also got an award called "Get of Sire" for all our show animals being out of the same bull (Eagle Pass "Bahama"). We may travel to Robertson Co. show next Thursday.
