Did I notice the show secretary having the same last name as Gordon?

Unfortunately she has to claim me as her uncle. She is my brothers daughter, therefore my niece. What is that old saying? "You can pick your friends, but not your relatives!"

Cool, I didn't know you had family that was into it too. I'm sure you've been a great mentor!

Actually it was my brother (Vicki's dad) that got me started in poultry. Along the way he gave me a Wheaten Ameraucana cockerel. That got me a start into the world of Ameraucanas. Vicki has carried on with poultry, but none of my 3 kids ever got the bug! My oldest daughter will go to shows with me to help drive, but that's about all. Brother passed away 2 years ago so I have lost my major mentor. He was like the ABC Forum search feature. He had been in poultry for over 60 years.

Wow what a legacy. I also have one kid interested and another not. My oldest is graduating and off to college so no more junior entries. Going to try to get my youngest to go with me to a couple, or maybe even my wife!

My dog likes to go to shows with me, but he is not always allowed at shows. Well back to working on the kids, but they are too old to learn new ways. Grandkids? They live too far away.
