Crossroads Poultry Show 2011-History and Reflection

[mame1616]

I'll be wearing a bright red sweatshirt with a Faverolles Roo painted on it - it's my standard show shirt. Gotta paint another one for Saturday.

Walt

I will be wearing bibs, but may dress up for the occassion in a low mileage pair. I can't afford a hobby like yours Walt, but do wish I had one that I didn't have to feed.

Ohhh...you have to feed this one too. You just feed it money instead of food. I do it on a very low budget though, the birds are actually more expensive. I have done the car thing since I was 16 and when I do it, I don't have to wait for anything to grow up or rely on a judge to determine if I won or not. For me, it has been a very good balance of hobbies.

Will you be there Thursday night?

Unfortunately, I won't be arriving until Friday evening - and likely not in time to attend the show that day. I'm staying at the Sheraton (Keystone Crossing).

Sorry, Wynette - Barn Goddess hat is not pink.

It's grey. (Not much of a girlie girl here!!!) Original hat was denim. I wore that one out!

Another tip if you are looking for me (and a BYC label): probably be behind a camera - somewhere in amongst the Ameraucanas or the Marans - or at their breed tables. Those are the birds I am most interested in.

I'm not shy so I'll probably be walking up to a lot of folks asking "Are you Wynette?" "Are you Walt?" "Are you Steve?" "Are you Kathy?" And if I'm really not sure "Are you on BYC? No? Well I am! Maybe you should check it out." - And extend my hand.

Probably have folks running from me. "Who's that NUT in the baseball cap????"
