Go Milk a Goat
We are now camped near West Salem Wisconsin, close to where the La Crosse County Fair is in progress. A close family friend Jean Krause and nine other celebrity contestants will compete in a goat milking competition for a deserving Charity. Our grandchildren Mason and Maddie visiting from Renton Washington, their great grandma Betty, their other grandparents Dewey and Mary Crocker, Kathleen and Me jointed Jeans husband Norm in a standing room only animal barn for the competition and the awarding of the coveted trophy. The contestants including Jean are all celebrity dignitaries from the area, and include hospital administrative types, TV weather meteorologists, disc jockeys, and various business dignitaries. The challenge was for each contestant to have 4 minutes to milk a goat and following the 4 minutes to have the quantity measured. Mason and Maddie did not miss a thing and in addition to cheering Jean on, monitored carefully the measuring of her effort. Go Jean!!!
Maddie and Mason made sure the measurement was correct. Jeans total in the measured 4 minutes was 5 cups. The nearest celebrity competitor to Jean had 3 and 3/4 cups. And the Winner is? Note the trophy in her left hand.
Congratulations Jean.
