Opening Day at the La Paz County Fair in Parker, Arizona, Part I

It's opening day at the
La Paz County Fair.

 The bleachers are filled for livestock judging.

La Paz Youth Livestock thanks

Kowboy Korner for their

support of youth livestock

 competitions.

Judge Jordan Dooley surveys
this "crop" of Hogs.







There's a lot of Swine here.  This morning, Jordan is judging the animals on their muscularity and their fitness for market...  Errr... meat on the hoof.

Many groups of Hogs

come out for judging.

Sometimes. a Hog will
"lie down on the job."

Comfortably Numb entertains

us at the Rotary Stage.

Back to the Livestock Building...

Exhibitors are bringing
Chickens to be judged.

Several groups of six enter

the ring & display their

Chickens.

This is serious...

Just three Pigeons come

forward to be judged.

Everyone leaves with

a ribbon.

 But wait...  There's more...
