What an amazing day! I met a lot more people, and may have my Polish bunny sometime soon. But anyway, the results, first, because I'm about to bust. LOL
Kitty wanted to take her Alfie doe. I don't care for the doe, and only bought her for 4-H meat pen entries (and we're buying the babies back, so nobody panic!
). I tried talking her out of taking her, but she insisted she liked her. So......
These are all under Judge Joe Colucci (and I hope that's the right spelling!):
Twila- won Senior Doe
Trisha- won Junior Doe
Alfie- won 6/8 doe, then took Best Opposite Sex
Here she is with Judge Joe, and her first bunny trophy.
Max: OMG! This rabbit is going to be the death of me. LOL We're showing under Ron Petras (love his heart!). He takes her out of the box and puts her on the table. He takes his hands off her, to start posing, and she takes off. I'm talking full-out, down to the American class at the next table. The judge at that table (Tim Branham) was like, "Oh, I see we have another American entry". LMAO At that point, I wanted the room to swallow me up. haha Anyway, he really liked her. She won the junior French Lop doe class. One bun short of a leg, but still a win.
Unfortunately they were VERY disorganized, so didn't stay for the second show. They didn't have the breeds being shown under any of the judge's names, so you had NO clue where you were showing, nor even what breed was before yours (so you knew when you were about up). The Lops and a few others were supposed to be checked in by 8:00, and start showing at 8:30. The rest of the breeds were to start at 9:00. Well, the entire show didn't get started until almost 9:30, so they started off really behind schedule...and stayed that way.
And they were big on having comment cards filled out. We entered Show A, handed in our comment cards, and waited. When Kit's Cals were up, they didn't have a single comment card from her! We had to scramble and make new ones (with the judge waiting the entire time, wasting even more time). So we leave, and she gets a call from a girl at the show (in her 4-H). They waited for TWENTY minutes for Kitty to show up for Show B. They said they were entered, and they had the comment cards. We NEVER handed in our entry forms for Show B nor the money, because the last double show had us getting home around midnight and the kids are still in school. So they've crammed the comment cards into the wrong folder, and then wasted time waiting. From listening to the other exhibitors complaining, the cards were messed up all day.
Anyway, had a good time, but sure was glad to be back home. The next show is May 5th, and it's only about a 45 minute drive. YAY!!!
