Did You Know About the Pig Races?

Did you know about the pig races?

This is one of the most enjoyable things for the kids to see at the livestock show! As it was raining the day we went, we only got to see one afternoon show (there are 4 or more throughout the day) and I missed half of that!

These little piggies simply "run" around a track. It's all in good fun and the kids get a kick out of it.





My daughter loved "Swifty" the little swimming pig!

Kid, heck! I'd enjoy that! Your livestock show sounds like the county fairs we used to have here.

yep, one big county fair! I love how they really cater to the kids. I sure wish we would have had better weather, but we had fun anyway! they have one whole building dedicated to exhibits kids like.

we used to go to the county fair when I was young. I've taken my kids several times in the place we used to live. but I've not been to the county fair in this county...
