The junior buck looks big in the coop but actually still a baby baby.

The chocolate agouti French Angora junior doe is a bit nervous.

And here is the baby sister.

 

Show A English Angora Judging at Petaluma

The Angoras were the first breed in the morning, a kinda surprise.   Normally we get a bit of time for setting up and groom but we got called to the table first.  The judge for show A is Jordan Miner.

There are 6 colored senior bucks and this is the 2nd place colored senior buck.

The first place colored senior buck has almost as good a coat as the senior does.

Now the colored senior doe class.

That's called a coat.

Sister has as equally good coat.

That's the pick of BOV and BOB English Angora, Raeanna gets her first BOB win.

It’s Charlie at Petaluma!

See who is at Petaluma, it's Tall Charlie!!!

Sur Morton says, "Yes, that's Charlie!"

We haven't seen Charlie for a while, last time at Carol's house a couple of years ago.   Since we did not have shows at Carol's this year, we did not see Charlie.   Petaluma is 2 hours away from Charlie's home, he is so kind to come to visit..   

Charlie is the president of our NCAG, Casey the VP, Betty the secretary and Carol the board member.  

Charlie is definitely a Giant comparing to all of us.

Charlie holds Regal, the BOSB winner at Petaluma.   

Charlie was very active in showing English Angora in the 2000s for over 10 years.  He misses the softness and cuddleness of English Angora.    Hope to see Charlie to visit shows more often.   He says that San Jose is a potential location since he has relative not too far and he'd love to visit the area sometime.
