To Market, To Market...



We decided to take a day and just get away by going to the county fair last week, which was in Argos, about 10 minutes away. Maria enjoyed the animals. She was able to pet a goat, some lambs, and see some cows, horses, rabbits, chickens and other birds. We went into the pig barn last and she wasn't very thrilled to see them. She was a bit frightened actually. She put her arms close to her side and would only walk right down the middle of the aisle. The only time she was very close to the cage was when we first went in. The pigs were pretty active and making lots of noises, I guess that was a bit too much for her. So I will have to break it to my brother Andrew, who works on a hog operation, that she isn't going to be jumping at the chance to see the pigs when we come to visit.
We have plenty to praise God for; pigs, mmmm, bacon!
