Frank:
I am so pleased you made it to this great event! I am also envious as it was early July ’09 since I’ve been to Rapid bay. Gorgeous is something else but as your comments and photos note there are a bunch of other eye-catching cows and heifers at RB!
Thanks for this wondrous reportage!
Jersey events get beigger and bigger all the time!
Go!
