We got home from the Fair grounds on Sunday after picking up the boys’ prize money and Randy was finishing baling the hay. I was lucky to get the car stopped in time because Samuel remembered it was his turn to drive the tractor.
The boys had so much fun hanging with the guys. [...]

Today was the day we had all been waiting for, The Chick Show! Samuel’s chicks showed well. He got a Blue Award. A very nice couple bought his chicks at the auction for $12 each! That is a very good price considering the Grand Champion chicks sold for $15. I [...]
