And I hope the house deal is over sooner than later- that's stressful I had to carry two mortgages due to undorseen retrieval by the buyer when I first moved to Portland - stressful with all caps. So, I feel for you.

Now with tenant/mortgage issues, too?? Bleah!<br /><br />I would beeline for the Avenue of Breeds! So cool; wish I could see them all in person. There's a small herd down the road from us of the Belted Galloway cattle; I call them Oreo Cows. <br /><br />Miss Chef and I are thinking about going to the NC State Fair...maybe we'll meet Joanna there??Alisonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09081652747471904560noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9113326581808647426.post-37114820194339645342009-09-06T22:58:18.549-03:002009-09-06T22:58:18.549-03:00Nasty business about the house; sorry!

Got to see new things and will have another entry on the Oregon State Fair as well. Oh, and that cattle breed is pronounced "gelb-vee."Michellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01550786937196525098noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9113326581808647426.post-44351917796420550612009-09-06T15:35:05.806-03:002009-09-06T15:35:05.806-03:00Now I know I'll go to the Iowa fair next year!...Now I know I'll go to the Iowa fair next year!

Very difficult when they are not paying and you can't get 'em out of the house. <br /><br />The fair looked like fun, we may go to the NC Fair late Oct.Joanna@BooneDocksWilcoxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11889259406024845745noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9113326581808647426.post-71368726133984920452009-09-06T11:04:37.666-03:002009-09-06T11:04:37.666-03:00Fascinating array of animals!
