Saying Goodbye
by jcfphoto
My editors were a little late assigning me to this but no matter. I followed kids from the Briones 4-H as they raised pigs for competition. Of course we all know what happens in the end. I was surprised to see how well the kids handled it. One of the kids always made sure he told us how much he loved bacon. I knew he wasn’t going to have any problems saying goodbye!
There was this one boy, Anthony Cannon. It was his first time showing a pig. Wouldn’t you know it. He won the big one. Grand Champion Pig. In the end it was a little difficult saying goodbye. The money he made from the sale will go towards his college fund. He loved that pig even though he did say it was a stubborn pig.
Here’s a link to the audio slideshow.
