I met with the 4-H director yesterday to explain it all to me. This is all new to me! Looks like we missed the last rabbit validation which was last night so Alison won't be able to show a rabbit. Of course, that won't stop her from wanting a rabbit again. She's had a couple of rabbits in the past and one that died just before we sold our house. It's looking like we're going to try for showing a goat and, of course, the horse show which is what led us down that path to begin with! Mrs. Stable had graciously offered to let Alison show Princess and to help her learn to work with her. Not sure if Michael is going to take part yet or not. He was interested in the rabbits but now that's out, so he thought maybe chickens. I don't think that's going to work out though. You have to get 50 baby chickens! If we had our own place, we'd let him give it a try.
Well, Michael's knives are officially for sale on consignment in a local little antique/junk store in the local town. He got his display all made and had me bring him up there last night while Alison was in dance class. She put better prices on them than he was expecting. She said she could always go down but not up on price so they'll see how they go. If they sell too fast, they aren't asking enough...if they sell too slow, they'll go down. His biggest problem is finding knives to use the blades from. He re-crafts the handles with either hand-carved wood handles or deer antlers.
