Don't Cry Over Spilt Milkshake

I was shooting pictures of award winning animals at the 2007 Wash Angeles County Fair earlier today. We scheduled for supreme champs to meet us in the show arena between 3:00 and 5:30. At that time in the arena the judging of the goats was going on with all kinds of little kids struggling to manage their animals. That's the set up, are you still with me, it's going to get good real soon. Our first supreme champ arrives in the shape of a large beef cattle setting the parents into a tizzy. "Hey don't bring that in here now!" "C'mon there's all kind of little kids around," people were saying. A grandmother had to push a young child with a soupy milkshake in a stroller out of the way, causing the shake to spill onto the kid. "See what you've done now," the gramdmother said to me. Then the "superintendent" of the goat show came up to me and said that if any child or animal was injured in the photo taking process I'd be personally responsible. Like I tell anyone who says that I have the perfect job. No job is perfect.

No animals or small children were injured during the posting of this blog.
