2018 ARBA Convention

[Jim Sullivan]

2:00 am, we're up and my daughter and I are ready to hit the road to W. Springfield, Ma. for the big rabbit show. Runs today to Wed. Only upwards of 15,000 rabbits or so. I wish my wife was going, but she has to stay home and tend to all of the other critters.

There will be lots of loosers leaving in buckets. You have to be a rabbit person to understand. Good luck to you and your daughter Jim. I'm headed to the track.

You betting on the horses, Dave?

 

[Jim Sullivan]

Thanks Dave. Took us about 3 1/2 hours, got here by 6:30. My daughter Debt, said there are about 17000 rabbits and guinea pigs here. I've got to walk around looking at rabbits for 5 days.
Good luck at the track Dave.

Deb's checking out the competition.
Well, not really, she's shopping for more rabbits.

Is "Bugs" gonna be at the show, Jim?

 

[Jim Sullivan]

I haven't seen bugs yet, but the wascally wabbit just might be hiding somewhere here.

Be vwerry vwerry quiet......

 

[Jim Sullivan]

Well, today was judging day. I watched the Thriantas. Deb had ten entered. Only her jr doe did well. A first in the "fur" class. Out of eleven. Here's a photo with the judge.
The best is yet to come.

 

[Jim Sullivan]

Ok, no rabbit pics yet but Deb's Giant Chin intermediate doe took best of breed and her intermediate buck took best opposite. Now another show at 3:00 for best in show.

Wow, that's doing something...
