Fort Worth Stock Show- mini show

[MinisOutWest]

Well, I just got back last night from the Fort Worth Stock Show. We all had a blast! but just had to dodge all the Gypsy Horse kicking hind feet. They mixed our show with the Gypsy Show. BAD IDEA.... But when all was said and done. I had a blast. There were spectators everywhere, if my 2 boys had less than 200 pictures an hour taken of them, I would be amazed. The crowds loved the minis. And especially the kids. It was a bit chilly in the barns, so I clipped out front of the stall barn in the sun. I had tons of people watching out there too. It was fun to talk to the people and listen to the little kids say how cute 'the little baby pony' was. ha ha I am hoping to submit a few suggestions for next years show and draw a bigger show crowd, let me see what I can do. But over all , it was a neat show, especially when it is the first show of the year and we forgot half our stuff at the stalls or at home- because we have been off for a few months from showing, ha ha ha. My Dukey Doo did great and so did my new boy- Finn. I will post pics when I get them.

I went Saturday (as a spectator), but the minis didn't start showing until well after I had to be home to care for my guys. I did get to see some of the early arrivals, though.

I was disappointed that the Heritage Sale that's been held there every year was cancelled this year. I heard several different possible reasons, but no one seemed to really know why.

Those Gypsy Horses are pretty cool. I don't know about showing the little ones at the same time, though. They do strange things there sometimes (the Stock Show management, I mean.)

I didn't stay as long as I would have liked, but I took my Nikon D80 with me and got a bunch of photos--some of which I'll even keep!
