GRANDSON SHOWS PIG AT THE COUNTY FAIR

FOR THOSE OF YOU WHO FOLLOW ME REGULARLY, YOU KNOW THAT THIS IS THE SECOND YEAR MY GRANDSON KYLE HAS RAISED A YORKSHIRE PIG TO SHOW AT THE COUNTY FAIR.  HE DID A GREAT JOB AT THE FAIR AND WON 5TH PLACE.  WE ARE SO PROUD OF KYLE AND ALL THE HARD WORK HE AND HIS FAMILY PUTS IN TO THIS FFA PROJECT.  IT HAS BROUGHT THEIR FAMILY CLOSER BY WORKING TOGETHER AND THEY HAVE HAD FUN TOO.  HERE ARE A FEW PHOTOS OF KYLE AND "WILSON" THE PIG.

 THIS IS ME AND WILSON AT THE END OF JANUARY.  HE IS VERY SWEET AND FRIENDLY.  LOVED TO BE SCRATCHED.

 WILSON IN HIS PEN AFTER A HARD DAY AT THE COUNTY FAIR. LOOK AT THOSE HAMS!!

 HERE IS KYLE AND WILSON IN ACTION FOR THE JUDGE.  IT IS EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO GUIDE A PIG AROUND THE RING FULL OF OTHER PIGS.  ALL KYLE HAS IS A SMALL STICK TO TAP WILSON TO TELL HIM WHICH WAY HE SHOULD GO.

 KYLE GETTING WILSON READY TO TAKE INTO THE RING.  HE IS OF GOOD CONFORMATION AND MUSCLE.  THIS IS LEAN, SUPERIOR PORK FROM ALL THE HARD WORK THESE KIDS PUT INTO TAKING CARE OF AND RAISING THESE ANIMALS.

GRANDMA IS VERY PROUD, CAN YOU TELL??

THANKS FOR ALLOWING ME TO GUSH A BIT ABOUT MY GRANDSON AND HIS PIG.
