We will have the pics taken by the official ADGA photographer in 2 or 3 weeks
They are awesome !!!
I got back home around 11:15
Maurine and Rachel have to stay until Friday

Oh and I was the victim of credit card fraud while I was gone
I tried to buy dinner last night and my card was declined
Tried today again to buy gas
Called and they had blocked my card due to potential fraud
Someone charged $2500 at a consignment store somewhere in KY
Only 2 possibilities of where my card number could have been taken
At a gas pump in Lancaster OH by one of those card readers thieves put in where you insert your card
Or by an employee of the McDonald's by the Expo center which is in a shady area
I'm thinking the latter
I think my credit card company is looking out for me who knows how much they could have run up if they hadn't blocked it
There was another fradulant charge attempted after the first
I'm not supposed to be liable for fraudulent charges
They are issuing me a new card and number
They said I would see a temporary credit for the $2500 on my account and I would be contacted by a fraud analyst
I think I will be ok
I'm glad they blocked it there was another fraudulent attempt of course they were looking out for themselves too

That dip in her chime is why she wasn't first place
The Nigerian Sr Doe show lasted 10 hours and this was about 8 1/2 hours in
They pulled Zamia out first and had her first of the top 5 for a while
Her back is more level when she is on the move
Maurine got a little lackadaisical in keeping her set up but she was so exhausted

That's great! Watching you guys, and some friends from Florida there has been great. We are hoping that 2021 might be back east... Danielle really wants to go before she graduates, especially after seeing one of the youth she's shown against take First in Senior Showmanship.

Congratulations again!

Maurine called me this morning and told me to check out Little Tots Estates website
He needs to place another goat at our house

Congratulations on the placing/win with Zamia. I have been learning alot about how involved the goat world is especially with the ND goats. I am very impressed with your animals, and know that there is alot of time and effort that goes into showing. Didn't realize that there was so much competition in the dairy goat world.
It is very rewarding to see some of that hard work behind the scenes in the day to day, show up in the show ring.

Again CONGRATULATIONS

Maurine is still in Ohio, she has to stay until Friday. But, they are just hanging out now watching the other breeds and going to the pool.
