unpacking to pack again

It seems I had three suitcases to unpack when I got home. One from my trip to the midwest and 2 i still hadn't unpacked from earlier trips in the summer. So i spent all day yesterday washing and folding clothes. Just to have to pack them again in a week to head up north. Thats right I'm on the move again. This time to the Central Washington fair in Yakima, WA. I'm excited never been there before but I have heard good things. I look forward to the adventure and meeting new people.

Minnesota State fair is over....

I would like to thank our sponsors for having us at the Minnesota State fair, Minnesota Farmers Union, Minnesota FRAC, Minnesota Farm Bureau and Minnesota MidWest Dairy Association. We had a great time getting to meet the public and educate them about agriculture. We feel like we accomplished our goal of teaching the public one thing new about about agriculture.
We made new friends and saw familiar faces. We loved the Moo Booths new look and even enjoyed volunteering in the booth. Thank you to everyone who made our experience at the Minnesota State fair. We can't wait for next year.

Minnesota State Fair!!!

Today was the first day of the Minnesota State Fair and it was a great day!! The fair was packed with enthustatic fair goers. The barns are filled with beautiful animals and great exhibitors. And of course I am in awe of the Moo Booth. Doris Mold and her team did an awesome job. I only wish we can get something similiar out in California. The tours were awesome and the people walked away learning one thing new about agriculture. And as long as they learn one thing new they will pass on the information to others. As long as we can teach the consumer what we do on the farm they will make informed decisions at the grocery store and at the polls. So reach out and teach someone one thing new about agriculture today!!

Great times and great people!!

Its sad that the Indiana state fair is over. It was such a great experience with the Farm Bureau and everyone that works for them. The tours went great and everyone loved them and I do believe they all learned one thing new. The weather was nice to me and didn't turn up the humidity so I loved it. But now that the fair is ended it is time to start my road trip to Minnesota for yet another great fair. Chase and I are off to see Notre Dame and then the world. HAHA. Not quite the world but at least the mid west. I made him promise me that we will see the birth place of John Deere. So stay tuned.

We are on the web again!!

Well we are up and a work in progress. Our new website is www.barntours.net and introducing a new website for our Farm Planet program www.farmplanet.org

Please check them out but remember that they are a work in progress.

Listening to the rain!

So as I listen to the rain here at my hotel I just wish i can bottle it up and bring it home with me later cause we all know California could use a little. And this time change is so kicking my butt. And I hate car rental places right now. Because I lost my credit cards(even though I have cash/travelers checks) no go on the rental car. But don't worry i have the best bank and they are fed ex-ing me my debit/check card card ASAP and then i can get it. Otherwise I have 2 feet and i'm not afraid of busses or taxis til then. But it does suck. As my dad would say this builds character.

Indiana look out!

So I am waiting in the airport waiting for my flight to Indy. I can't wait to start the state fair. It always good times. And I do love the tractor parade every night. Come say hi I will be with the Indiana Farm Bureau. Trust me i'll keep you posted on my trip!
