Mercedes Livestock Show

Decided to head on down to the Livestock Show at the Mercedes Livestock Arena

We start out at the Chainsaw Carving
At this point Gary guesses a dolphin 
I was thinking maybe a Goat or Ram 
Now it's becoming more obvious from this angle 
Yep - it's a horse 


We wander into one of the Exhibit Halls . . . . and find BBQ's
Texans take their BBQ very seriously!


The thought of BBQ makes us hungry!
How about something from a Texas Size Griddle?
Texas Size Ice Cream might be good. . .
But we opt for a Baked Potato stuffed with Brisket - now what for dessert?
It's hard to eat without a knife!

Oh Yeah!  The Livestock!






There were some interesting rides
Traveling Shows

and of course the Lumber Jacks!



Next door was the slingshot ride
and last but not least the greased pig wrestling


Meanwhile we keep on Trek'n Melissa & Gary
