The 2010 4-H Fair

The 4-H CLub held its annual fair last weekend.  The four H s' stand for "Head, Hands, Heart, and Health."  The 4-H Club members pledge goes like this:  I Pledge My Head to clearer thinking, My Heart to greater loyalty, My Hands to larger service and My Health to better living for my Club my Community my Country and my World.  The fair is held every year at the Caroll County Farm Museum.

Welcome to the 4-H Fair

Farm scenes such as this one were on display.

My favorite event this year was the antique tractor square dance. 
There was a "caller" calling out square dance positions, and the tractors would "dosey doe".

 More square dancing

There was a "tractor pulling" contest for little kids. 
Check out this guy's outfit, complete with cowboy hat and boots. 

Looks like this little piggy is taking a little nap.

A youngster prepares to display his prizewinning ewe "Monster".

Fashionable female sheep farmers.

"Jagger, meet your future source of milk."

Jagger says he prefers mommy's milk.

Snack:  Dutch style funnel cake and lemonade

Who says size doesn't matter?  This corn collector is the biggest
piece of farm equipment I have ever seen.

I was willing to move out to the country, but I draw the line at driving giant tractors.

The tire is big enough to sleep Skyler.

I call this "Filipino American Gothic."
