Everyone left all articles of clothing on... no birds came home with me.. I almost caved at the end on some leghorns, polish, ducks and all cute little bantys.. so darn adorable they are.. but I was soooooooooooo good.
It was fun meeting all of you .. Now if I could remember which face went with which name.. LOL.. Got Sam, Chelsey, Kristan(crystal), Granny and Rose and of course Diana (and her daughter Rose) , Rhandi and Ellen.. Not bad for my first meet... Who was the blonde w/ the double stroller and all those kids??
D. How did rose do on her 3 birds? I started to wonder through again to check on her status.. but got side tracked at the couple black orps there.. LOL
OH.. and my Black Amera Roo.. must have heard me talking about how girly he is.. I swear his tail was a little higher held then normal.. LOL wooot... first chicken show.. fun, entertaining and so laid back.. Next year I'll be getting some birds in there.. for fun of course....
can i just say, it was so nice of Ellen to come and pick me up! i got to meet her mom (who is way too sweet!) and hang out with her two boys who i just love. (my favorite non-related taste testers.) THANK YOU, ELLEN! (zephyrcreek) i appreciate you.
so, zip, bang, off to Frankenmuth in the truck we went and just as we walked in, i spied Blueberrylu walking out with her beautiful brood of kids and flagged them down to meet Ellen and her family!
as i was intro'ing them, i looked up and there was KrisRose and chickflick in front of my face! (none knowing the others!!!) so quick, i got everyone together to snap a photo and Kris and Rose said, "Well, there is Opa over there and Bluemoon!" so, quick like bunnies, we got a group photo together.
can i say, i am smiling SO big, it looks like i am getting my Christmas goose early or something. i personally suspect KrisRose....she's seen my unders on the laundry line.
then Ellen asked me if i could help her find LauraSBale as she had something for her. i said of course and then i turned around and there she was! so those two got together and did their thing. meanwhile, i hung out with Laura's two lovely daughters and their cousins.
when they finished up, off to lunch with the gang where we joined up with someone i recognized from her avatar right away...kassy68
and wyliefarms!
It was nice to meet all you folks, and Fowlfest was fun. ( and frankenmuth, since I had never been) I stayed strong, and didn't bring home any birds even though Opa tried.
Now I must catch up with house stuff, and let the dogs run their sillies out!
after lunch, we toured about and looked at the birds and had a good old time.
wanted to grab a picture with Mr. John Blehm and he obliged. he is such a gentleman and nothing short of gracious.
then a hokey pokey pic before we went our separate ways!
another great chickeny kind of day! i enjoyed myself and loved meeting BYC'ers i hadn't met yet and visiting with those of you i had before and never get tired of hanging with!
