MJS Sports Show

The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel sponsors a huge outdoor sports show each year at the state fair grounds.  I really thought the boys (the big one in particular) would enjoy it.  After Smalz was finished up with his basketball game, we headed over to check it out.  After waiting in line for a while we were able to get off the freeway and eventually turn into the parking area.  ( I found out later there was a record breaking crowd that day.  Go figure.)  Anyway, there was a ton of stuff to look at.  From beautiful boats to expensive fishing poles to sleek hunting rifles to just about anything else you would need to have a little fun outdoors.  The boys really enjoyed getting to shoot a bow and arrows.

They were bummed mom and dad didn't have any cash so they could go fishing in this guaranteed catch pond.

But we all enjoyed the lumberjack feud.  This is one of the sawing events that was demonstrated during the feud.  Those guys were pretty quick.

The lumberjack we were rooting for, Turbo, almost won but lost it all in the log rolling competition.

The boys still wanted to go say hi.  They picked up pieces of wood and had him autograph it for them.  Turbo is actually #5 in the world in the tree climbing event.
