Two Little Piggies went to Market


Jan 2009 040, originally uploaded by trlrover.

Yesterday was the day. Bacon and Pork Chop had a 'date with destiny' at the Meat Packing Plant. Chris and Bryon took the day off so they could wrangle them into the trailer and head to town...yeah, they aren't kidding anyone, they went hunting too :-) I didn't hear an exact weight but they were estimated around 300 pounds.

Bacon and Pork Chop were raised on the Medley Farm and although Chris and the boys were out there quite a bit, Bryon and Lisa did the majority of the work. We know all of the hard work, $$$ and time invested in these filthy animals (boy, I forgot how much pigs stink!) not to mention having to get out to do chores in the freezing cold or wading through the mud and the muck.

So, we are sending a huge shout out to them to say "THANK YOU FOR EVERYTHING" , seems pretty inadequate for all they've done but it is greatly appreciated : )
