Cream of the Crop Letterbox
Planted 9/8/02
By Leader of the Pack ,Purple Cow and Flower Child
At Wapping Fair grounds - Rye Street Park
( home of Cute Cluckers Letterbox also)
Rated easy

The date of Sept 6 found 4-H members busy with the job of body
clipping their 4-H cow projects in preparation for the fair. Many
hours of beauty treatment go into preparing these bovine beauties
for their few minutes in the show ring. This is hard work if you
ever saw a little kid with a first haircut you know IT TICKLES! So
imagine these beauties and their ticklish tummies being clipped. All
the 4-H kids learn so much about management and time mangement while
preparing the project for the fair. Wapping Fair on Sept 7&8, was the
second fair so the experience paid off and the kids and their calves
came out of the ring with ribbons of Blue, red , white and yellow. It
was a very good day!
Another yellow item was in everyone's view that weekend. In fact
quite a lot of round yellow items. Our cow tent was right near them
and so is your new Letterbox. Go to where there are round yellow
things aplenty. Between 2&3 on the rise where the tent was erected
you will find a low home to the Cream of the Crop in honor of those
beauties who paraded here at the Dairy Show.
This is a busy little park so camoflage your activity with another
like frisbee catch then take a snack break to cover your stamping
activity if anyone is around. Don't give away the secret home of the
letterbox. Thanks and as always Be Safe and Have Fun
