Well, expect to head west with John Blehm starting early Thursday morning, and hope to pull into Great Falls sometime Friday p.m. From the forecast, we will probably be driving into some rain, as that is the prediction for here Thursday and Friday. We are bringing some show and sale birds for Bob Walchak, who is taking a temporary leave of absence from keeping and showing for the next few years. My brown red bantams are pretty much all in heavy molt, so I'm only bringing one, a cock who still has a ways to go with his new feathers. Also showing one bantam wheaten pullet and a pair of LF Brown Reds, a cockerel and a pullet.
Am also taking a pair of Partridge Chantecler bantams to give Paul Wieser a little competition for his whites, since he is driving over to the show from Washington state. Little is an accurate word to use I think, as Paul has good ones. It will be my first time to meet Paul in person; he is a CFI Director.
Wishing all of you who are attending safe travels and encouraging all who attend to make this a really fun national meet. I did not sign up for the host club banquet, as I did not know what the rest of you had planned. I'm sure we can figure something out once we arrive. Drive safely and God bless.
