WOW!! We had a blast at the Ohio State Fair. The Northeast Shires' crew included Shannon & Ryan Keeler (my neighbors and the best barn slaves in existence), Vicki & Michael Hauser (Lily and Abby's new parents), and Judy Brodland. Many extra "thank you"'s go to Judy. She actually flew out from Washington to New Hampshire and then drove more than 16 hours with us from NH to OH. Judy helped in so many ways and also provided a ton of emotional support for me and she was the official photographer for Northeast Shires. Judy was working with terrible lighting conditions but still did a great job with all of the pictures below.

National Shire Show - KILE 2002
(KILE - Keystone International Livestock Exposition held in Harrisburg, PA)This show turned out to be the largest Shire show in the United States history! We were really proud to be a part of it. Lily did great placing fourth (out of a very large class) in the "Two Year Old Filly" class. Fini also did great placing fourth (out of a very large class) in the "Yearling Filly" class. Together they placed second in the "Produce of Dam" class. We hope to have pictures and video from the show soon.
KILE 2001
(KILE - Keystone International Livestock Exposition held in Harrisburg, PA)Lily placed second in the "Yearling Filly" class and third in the "Get of Sire" class. The "Yearling" class was a large class with many nice fillies. We are very proud of Lily for taking second place!

Fancy placed second in the "Mare and Foal" class and third in the "Broodmare" class.
Fini placed third in the "Get of Sire" class and third in the "Weanling Filly" class. Poor Fini was kicked by a two year old mare at the show just before entering the show ring for her class and didn't feel much like trotting for the judge!
