On Wednesday, I went with my mom and dad to judge some 4-H projects in another county. I said that I would judge soil and water conservation (since I am very familiar with the books!), geology (ditto, I worked on these books last summer) and entomology. We got to the fairgrounds at a little before noon. So dad judges small engines, weeds, corn, and soybeans while I helped mom judge Shooting Sports (I mostly filled out her official sheet because she didn't have a Jr. Leader helping her). Then at a little before 2pm, I went over to my table to judge the 3 projects I agreed to judge. There were about 10 projects I had to judge (and I had an assistant who helped me fill out all the paper work, she was very nice and really knew what she was doing!) so it took me about 30 mins (including talking to the kids). So then I went back to Mom's table to help her finish up. And then the 4-H cooridinator for the county asked me if I would judge geneology because the judge they had never showed up. So despite the fact that I know very little about geneology, I judged it anyway (the leader for the geneology club was there, so it really wasn't to bad.) So overall, it was a pretty good day (and I got paid for it as well). And it was a nice change of pace from "processing" chickens on Monday (and Tuesday night). Mom and I are going to pick up an old Chambers stove (which is like to one on 30 minute meals with Racheal Ray on foodnetwork) that mom won on ebay. I'm not sure what she is going to do with it, but once I have a house, I call that stove!
