And that's a wrap for show #2, Indiana State Fair. We are glad to be back home. Next up, county fair week.

Sorry, there isn't pictures of show day for this one as we got asked to help run the ring. There are a few from pre-show days.

We did alright for showing this year at Ohio State Fair. The judge had some nice things to say about our cattle. There were other great cows to walk the ring with too. (More pictures coming soon.)

Plus, we were pleasantly surprised how the banners fell for Futurity.

BMF Magnus' Tiny Diamond took grand and our OLC Reina took Reserve.

Now on to the next. See you at Indiana State Fair, show day is Friday.

Next one up is in September.
