Oxen

In the morning we visited apple country and then in the afternoon we headed up to the top of the Lake Winnepesaukee to a town called Sandwich.  They were having an annual activity with animals, crafts, food, tractors and lots of people.  We hope to make it to an actual county fair before the snow starts falling but this wasn't one.  In spite of that it was very interesting.  I had never seen an oxen before and these were very impressive.  I thought they were about the size of a cow and was so surprised when I saw that they were huge.  Now I understand why they were able to pull a wagon across the plains.
First the Oxen
Then the Antique Tractors
And Finally a 550 lb. Pumpkin
