4-H Auction


We went over to the Lewis County Fair, and had a good time. The food was good, the people were nice, the weather was great, and there were plenty of animals. Then; we dropped in on the 4-H auction. Like a sudden thunderstorm rolling in things took a drastic turn. A sweet looking girl brings her 200lb + hog out and is a composed as the other students, then she gives the sow a pet and begins to cry. Although we knew from the start what would happen, the situation changed drastically for me when I saw how attached this girl was to her pig. We left the auction, telling ourselves she was going to the farm to live out her years happily in the meadows and open fields. I honestly don't think I can eat any more pork now.
Talk soon.
